Do eat the Chocolate

Went out to eat at an Italian restaurant. Really good hot chocolate and spaghetti though I forgot to take a picture of the spaghetti! Also got a pack of Kinder buenos, just for my friend. Turns out they're delicious!!! it's crispy but also creamy on the inside. Mmm  

A Bitta Groceries

Bought some groceries today! Just thought I'd share what stuff is like. 

orange! makin orange juice from my orange juicer

six eggs come in a cute carton. smaller portions
are great! 

Fassbrause, this kind of herbal lemonade

string cheese! tastes like REAL cheese,
unlike the American kind

RITTER SPORTS!! cheaper here (~0.85 Euro per bar) than in
America! ($4!!!!)

Dresden! DAY 1

We spent two days in Dresden and the weather was absolutely lovely for it!

Dresden was heavily bombed by Americans during World War II and since then has been doing a lot of rebuilding. A lot of it's a bit controversial as buildings often are.. whether they reflect the old style architecture or rebuild new? And why? and how?

This is why architects have white hairs and many bags under their eyes.

Libeskind's addition to the Military History Museum.
The interruption of the addition to show that this military
history is not perfect.

Tanks on display by the museum. Germans are actually
ones of the most peaceful people nowadays. They know
that war isn't the answer.

Feasting

Second day of class kind of! We had the morning off so we ate. lots :D

The food was beautifully arranged. I ordered french toast and it came with yogurts, maple syrup and fruits on the side.

In the middle you will see an Apfel Strudel, and in the distance, you will see my friend's very German dish. Forgot what it was called though!

Currywurst is not the worst

One thing that you need to have in Germany is currywurst! it's basically sausage with ketchup-y type stuff and curry powder.

looks kind of bloody

a strawberry tiramisu-y dessert

yuuuum 

Hey Summer

This blog is back! The first few weeks were really hectic since I went on two trips. First one was the Charlottesville to see a bunch of people graduate. And the second one was to the Outerbanks! Lots of fun. Overwhelming fun.
