Holiday

Hey Bloggees,
Today was a slow day in Koblenz. The shattered glass was swept up, the spent fireworks were piled into trash bins and Sarah and I slept off our Champagne. Due to the holiday, all the stores were closed so we went to a big, beautiful church to celebrate the feast day of Mary Mother of God. Sarah gave me the cliff notes on the homily and I found out how hard it is to respond in English when everyone is responding in gibberish... er German. We ate a simple dinner and rented Pan's Labrynth (unfortunately it didn't have English subtitles, so we watched Forrest Gump instead). Then I learned my numbers and colors in German while kicking butt in Uno. (Sarah's roommate Andreas now knows how cut-throat an Uno game can be played.)
that was the night!

Auf Wiedersehen!

p.s. the gold shoes did not come into play last night due to a hilarious fall down the stairs. Pictures to come.
