Saturday the three of us went to a barbecue at Jule and Alex's friends house in a town about 30 minutes away. It was cool because Julia and I took a tour of the old town which was filled with cobblestones and fachwerkhaus ( I dont know how we say that in English but I'll show pictures and you'll know what I mean) and then we ate dinner and everything was sooooo good (as usual) and we had grilled feta cheese and ohmygosh. Sven, the party host had a nineteen year old son, so after dinner I went with him to meet some of his friends and we walked around the city for awhile and guys! Now I have some real German friends, how cool is that?
Today is Julia and Alex's anniversary and they took me to the town they used to live in, Wuppertal (welcome to Wuppertal, the rainiest city in all of Germany), where, surprisingly, it was raining. We rode around on the schwebebahn, which is the only train in the world that has rails on the top, and it was incredibly cool. Then we met Alex's parents, who were really sweet, and then we went to Ethiopean food and it was so so good.
And that was my weekend!
