Last Week

I am currently in Munich, but last week concluded my time in Freiburg with UT. All in all it was a pretty calm week. We arrived back in Freiburg Monday morning safe and sound. That afternoon Georg led us on a hike to meet his parents and explore the vineyards around his home town of Kaiserstuh. Thanks to our 7:00 am arrival back in Freiburg I missed the 10:15 train. Consequently I had to take the next train (30 minutes later), but it worked out ok, I was able to skip the hike up to the vineyard and rode with Georg's parents to the top of the hill. Also conveniently upon my arrival a snack consisting of Bretzels and Sausages was being served. Topped of with a glass of white wine, it truly was a great afternoon.


Tuesday was our hike in the Black Forest. We took the regional train just outside of Freiburg to a small ski village. From there we hiked though the woods and to a small restaurant. I had a goulash and some authentic Black Forest cake. All in all it wasn't too strenuous of a hike and I really enjoyed the cake!



Wednesday through Friday was pretty slow as we began to wind down the trip. On Friday we had a going away cookout and Saturday it was off to Munich!
