WELL... where to begin. Let me just say the flight to Germany was quite quick. Which really helped my sanity. When I first got on the plane, I realized I was a middle seat. Oh I almost freaked at the idea of being sandwiched between two people for 10 hours. Then there was no one in my aisle! I was stoked at life. All three seats to myself. At the very last minute some gorgeous young Italian man stumbles to my three seats and says he is the window seat. I was like OMG I am in love. This is going to be an amazing flight. WRONG. While I did get to sit in the aisle seat, the gorgeous Italian ended up being a moron, jerk, and completely full of himself. NO THANK YOU. So I read my book, took a nap, watched a movie and the end of the flight came quick and painless.
So then began Germany. The first day we walked around Worms, Germany. Looking at all the old historical sights, including St. Peter's Dome, the oldest Jewish cemetery in all of Europe, and old Roman wall, and other random things along the way. The most exciting thing to me was that apparently Worms has this tale of dragons throughout the centuries... little colorful dragon statues were scattered throughout the center. I of course found it completely necessary to take a picture with as many as I could find. Then there was the little Pope statue with the scarf, the small model of St. Peter's Dome for blind people (right by the big one). I was fascinated. Then of course there was food, liquor, more liquor and more site seeing. That was all we saw of Germany, for now. I am in France currently. It deserves a blog all on its own. Which will soon come!
As for the poses in some of the these pictures... don't ask. I don't even know what I was doing. But one really amazing feat... I never slipped once on the icy sidewalks! Yay for me!
