... in Cologne which is where I was supposed to be today.<br> I would have gone to stay with Laura last night except for the fact that the family I lived with decided to go and get vaccinated for the swine flu and are now reacting to the vaccine. I'm glad to say that I chose not to get the vaccine despite some pressure from the family to go ahead and do it. I just don't trust people to put diseases into my body without testing them for a good long ...

... these men, we learned that their mugs are from the early 1900s, and have been passed down from father to son for generations. When these mugs and the Hofbrauhaus were created, Bavaria was still its own independent monarchy--a political situation these men are keen on returning to!<br> From there, Katie and I returned to Cologne, and were there later reunited with the crew. We all had a fantastic, and at sometimes slightly too crazy time exploring ...

... as everyone else. <br><br>2.) What do they eat in Germany? They eat food. Some common foods you find in the US that you don't find here include: Peanut butter, cheddar cheese, chocolate chips, brown sugar, vanilla extract, salsa, tortillas, hot peppers, pop tarts, macaroni and cheese, and top ramen. Foods you find here that you can't find at home include: Turkish Kebabs, Turkish Pizzas, Currywurst, zweibelkuchen (onion cake), Marzipan, milchreis ...

(Whitney)<br> <br>We had a long trip from Naples all the way up to the Black Forest in Germany so we split it up with a stop overnight in Florence. We love Florence so we were excited to go back again. We arrived in the afternoon so we did some quick shopping and bought a leather jacket each. We also went and had a look in the Duomo as we never got a chance to actually go in when we were there last time. We had dinner at the hostel with two Aussies from our room ...

So...sorry I'm really really bad about updating this. It will probably only get less frequent as time goes on because I really have nothing new and exciting to report. I've basically fallen into routine here and most of the stuff that seemed interesting at first has become normal to me. I will say that this week has been pretty fun. Tanya took me shopping and bought me a new bag and a dress which was pretty freakin' awesome of ...

... grass I've ever seen. It was the most idyllic landscape I'd ever seen.<br> Once reaching Westport and joyously reuniting with Jeff and Sarah, we drove to Sarah's house (it took me a while to get used to sitting on the wrong side of the road. The wild Irish driving style did nothing to assuage my nerves). I was further astounded. Sarah's house is a huge, rambling, stone structure. It is hundreds of years old and covered in ivy. On one of the walls inside, there is a ...

... to mosey. The Conference I am attending here in Bonn is at the World Conference Centre - once Germany's Parliament, now turned global meeting place. I did feel a little bit for the city, as a gaggle of politicians (this IS the correct collective term, I have checked) banged on about how Bonn would become a global centre. They must feel a ...

This entry is split into 2 sections, both happened on the same day. The day started with a trip to Bonn with Iona. Bonn is about a half hour train ride from Cologne and we get to travel there free with our student pass. Bonn has a mountain on one side with a lookout called Königswinter. There is also an old castle on top of the mountain and the view is spectacular. You can see right up and down the Rhine River. Once we climbed down the mountain again we took a walk along the ...
