Today was great I woke up went to school learned english, german, biology, and art. The classes were all fun and my friends helped me in german which made it ok. I also Danced in front of about five hundred people that thought I was awesome I will have my friend video me next time. I also convinced a girl to dance with me on Monday in front of about five hundred people hopefully she will. This weekend I go to Dusseldorf for a Rotary thing so will not be back till Sunday. Bye for now.

Sorry I have not posted in a few days. Saturday night I went to a party with all my friends and had a great time. On Sunday I went to a Birthday party it was my host mom's brother and I accidentally had some wine with orange juice in it. In my defense it looked exactly like orange juice but tasted so bad. I was like what do they have in their orange juice then my host brother told me it was wine and we both laughed forever because it was just great especially when he told everyone else.

Last night my host parents family got together. We all talked and had drinks in the back yard until it started to rain then we moved inside. It was great one of their family man is a business man to america so he is fluent in english and he translated the conversations for me. Today we went to look at garage doors because my host parents want a new one and Christoph came to town for the weekend so we will hang tomorrow. Tonight I have a party to go to with my friends from Serbia and Turkey so yall will hear about that tomorrow.

For your information about food and drink. In germany they eat about the same at meals as in america.

They do not always eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They eat about the same foods as americans. Germans drink carbonated and non carbonated water, but carbonated is better to them. They like their water cold but not seldom do they drink with ice. In germany they have coca cola and pepsi companies but not Dr. Pepper. In germany they drink their beer cold not warm maybe room temperature but mostly cold. This information is more for the people in the US not the kids in Rotary that already know this. Also my information may only be accurate for my region so not haters.

My family and house

This is my family but it is a few years old.

 This is the house that I live in it is great they just finished the Garden and the back yard it looks good.

Today I was able to go and explore Xanten by myself while my parents were at work. In germany some of the taxis are Mercedes which is awesome. I was able to see a Alfa Romeo, Opel and Dacia in person they are very nice. I also found a place called Howdy Tattoos which was funny because when I asked them if they knew anything about Texas or cowboys and farms and ranches they had no clue what I was talking about could be the Language gap. That is all for today.

Great second day in germany, my host dad and I got up and got rode bikes to get breakfast for everybody. After breakfast me and my brother went to see down town Xanten and we ate some of the best ice cream I have ever had. Then we came home grilled and ate lunch and I had the best drink ever it is Schwip Schwap which is coke and orange very good. Now I have free time so I am relaxing.
