Today we went to Winterfeldt Platz, ate tiramisu and stuffed eggplant, drank freshly squeezed pomegranate juice, and bought a weeks worth of food. Now we're going to go meet some friends for Mexican in Kreuzberg. Yesterday we ate Dolores Burritos before looking into shoe, clothing and vintage second hand stores. We then ate the most amazing frozen yogurt ever (unless you think that strawberry yogurt with strawberries, chocolate brownie sauce and pistacio sauce isn't good). This may seem like a highly unusually fun weekend, but it's really not that different than any others since we have been here. Our free days are packed with museums, galleries, music, bike rides and delicious food.
Of course we also have school, which for me goes all day (8-4). This prevents us from doing all the fun things that I wish I could do, because by the time I get home its already very late and I have to do homework. School is going well though. I have made many friends and I'm (trying) to learn German. I have nine 45 minute periods on Monday-Thursday, not including Break. On Friday I get out at one, so I only have six periods. My favorite class is probably Art, but I like most of them. It's fun, but when Fall Break came (2 weeks), I was ready to have a rest from long school days
During the break, Elena and I flew by ourselves to Hotchkiss to see everybody. We really enjoyed seeing our family and friends in the beautiful Colorado fall weather. When we were there, my Grandparents had their annual garlic planting/cider pressing party. A lot of people came to see us there, and we had a lot of fun.
Berlin has been very fun, and we can't wait for someone to come visit!We miss you!
