Germany

So since my long absence I have failed to mention that i went to germany. It was wonderfully breath taking in every way possible. I drank more then i can remember and saw more then i knew my eyes could see. I sang songs and drank beer in the oldest brewery in Munich while i was wearing traditional Beer Garden girl clothing. I fought A German sheep at a petting zoo. I stood in Marine Platz while FC Bayern played ManU in the play offs, and won. I felt more energy from drunken fans then I have ever felt in America. Do you know what its like to stand in the middle of what is honestly just a city and hear thousands of people singing the same song, all over a soccer match, well its absolutely and overwhelming the most energetic breath taking experience that i have ever experienced, and you my friend, you should try it too. I stood on the grounds that Oktober fest are held on, the grounds that are forever reserved for a festival that has been around far longer then even my beloved Omi. I climbed to the top of Saint Peters church and looked down on this magnificent city, all the redish rooftops bentheth the tallest tower, it's a law you know, they cannot build any structure taller. I saw a whole city shut down for easter, and i mean shut down, there wasnt a drop of beer to be sold that day and it was beautiful. It is the first time in my life that can honestly say that i admired unity. I danced in a club that held over 5000 people, met a soccer playing German Italian boy named Stefano, he was also, indeed, Beautiful. I saw the Olympic Village that tragedy so horribly struck and i rode a train that was so clean that it baffled me. I can really go on forever but what was most wonderful about my trip was that i got to see my cousins and meet my great aunts and i did it all with a girl that at one point i believed to be my best friend in the whole entire world.
