And a short night it was. I was up Sunday morning at 7:30AM. We were meeting Dr. D at Brandenburger Tor. Fortunately I ran into Lisa at the S Bahn station, so I didn't have to go alone. Later at night and the weekends, not all the lines run and if they do, they run much farther apart. We got to the meeting place and no one from our class was there, no Dr. D either. Hmm, so we walked around. And finally another girl showed up, who told us it was at 9:30, not 9 as we thought. Epic Fail!! Darn, that would have been another half hour of sleep!
When everyone arrived, we got those super cool headsets so we could hear him on our tour. We saw a lot of neat things, including the US embassy. I took tons of pictures. I think I've taken close to 500 since I've been here, not even a week yet! The weather didn't cooperate with our tour again. It rained of course! This weather here is really starting to irk me!!! But I still enjoyed the tour. We finished around 1PM. We were exhausted from our late night still.
We found döner again. It was just as good this time. However, I can never finish one by myself! They are huge! After this, we all parted ways and went home. I couldn't help but take a nap. I was so exhausted. It was actually work to walk home from the train station. After I woke up, my host dad, brother, and I went to play billiards (pool). They said they had never played before. So when I said we had a pool table in the house, they said I'm a professional. Anyone who has ever played pool with me knows that is far from the case! I found out my host dad lied! He had these fancy behind the back moves! Incorrect! But nonetheless it was fun! Thimo and I were on a team. We ended up winning overall. Mostly because my host dad put the black ball in a couple of times haha.
My host family is so very nice and welcoming! I really enjoy living with them! I couldn't have asked for a better family!
