Our first completely free weekend of the trip turned out to be full of new experiences accompanied with some relaxation for myself. On Saturday, 9 of us left for Trier to see old ruins and what we told was a more traditional German town. Of course when we got there it was raining and stayed cloudy all day. Trier was fun and interesting, but the real excitement of the trip came on the ride back to Koln. Basically to make a long story short we partied with a bachelorette party on the train and one of us (Madeline) even brought the Soulja Boy dance to the Deutschland. We got off the train in Koln to see the fireworks and have a few drinks. Finally we got back to Dusseldorf around 2:00 am. The next morning I opted no to travel to Amsterdam and stayed in Dusseldorf all day. I experienced the French Festival in Aldstadt and enjoyed the beautiful weather.
During my short time here I have been thinking of things here that I think should be started in the States. First, Duners should come to the states. Duners are Turkish sandwiches made from huge slabs of meat and some good sauce with lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. Amazing simply describes it. Another is all the ice cream stands. Around every corner there is sure to a bar and close that is usually an ice cream stand. And for just a few cents you can try one of a number of flavors, pure genius. There will surely be more to come in later blogs, but for now, tschuss.
