Today, Dietmar and Brigitte took us on the train to Görlitz. It is a very interesting and beautiful city. Brent and I were particularly fond of the Ratsapoteke building (see below).
We took a bus tour of the city, but everything was only in German. Armed with printed info from Brigitte, and our brains, we managed to understand about 10% of the tour. For the rest we just made up our own stories. After the tour, we walked over the bridge to Poland. It was our first time ever in Poland. Very cool. After Poland, and before heading back to Spremberg, we visited/climbed Nikolai Tower, which was super interesting. |

We have been planning to get the €9 special transit pass for our travels to the end of the month. Today, we got them - Dietmar bought them for us. Contrary to how the info read on the web, we did not have to buy a complete three-month pass for €27 - we were able to just get the August passes and away we went. |

Candy cones
Last night at dinner we learned that, when the school year starts, each kid receives a cone full of candy. These are some cones. Now… where do I sign up to be a school kid in Germany? -

Ok maybe not yet, but it could happen! Getting back into acting is on his list…
