07-15-2010

I have run out of things to blog about apparently... Somewhere I lost my urge to write about life here and the daily happenings around which this blog is based. Granted I did not write very often anyway, I hope to receive some sort of inspiration soon.

Lia and I just got back from a trip with my cousins, Lyle and William, to Siena for the Palio, Vienna, Munich and Berlin. We got to see Germany play Spain in the World Cup, in Munich at the Lowenbrau Biergarten, which was amazing. We went to the first concentration camp of the Nazi regime (that every other concentration, extermination or detention camp in Eastern Europe was modeled after) called Dachau, south of Munich. It was a great experience to see such a horrible and historical place. Lyle, Lia and I got to visit the castle near Munich which inspired the Disney story of Snow White and the castle in the movie. After that, we went to the largest biergarten in all of Munich, which sat over 8,000 people!

The trip was a blast and it was great seeing my cousins. Life here in town is still good but hot (especially because we have no AC and share a curtain with the attic), so i think we are going to stay now until September! If my grammar is getting bad and my sentences are not making as much sense anymore, it is because I am almost passing out while I type in the heat. I will post again soon I hope... If there is anyone still reading.
