Extreme Randomness
... br> Then I got busy getting my package organised for Australia by buying a few German things to send home. Go visit Rainer in 2 weeks and you might be able to read a German newspaper. Season 1 of Dr House has been entertaining me in the afternoons as well, but with an upcoming trip to Stuttgart this Sunday, I've been trying to organise that and Christmas cards as well.

European Girls
... beginning of a Christmas market and sampled some of the traditional Christmas treats like a mohrenkopf (a chocolate marshmellow desert).
