The Best of...

Munich, Germany! (Thanksgiving Break)



After an epic evening at the Hoffbrauhaus brewery, where they serve beer in 1 liter increments, we left on an early train (which we barely made even after sprinting through the giant central train station a little worse for wear) to go to the "Walt Disney Castle" near the Austrian border.


A 12 person bike... that serves gluwein. Fantastic! :)


Christmas Is Coming!

It is Official! Christmas is almost here. I don't know where it came from, because last that I knew it was Thanksgiving, and I was on a trip to Munich, Germany. Now I find myself at home, in Maine with the company of my family and all the craziness that is our preparation for our Christmas Eve party.... I have some clutch photos that I want to share with you from the past month or so. Last week, we had our debut with the Balkan Dance group from school, in our school's Winter Concert... We are no where near as talented as our students (who I would say are phenomenal) but we certainly have some fun! Not to mention, the students find it hysterical that their two-left footed international teachers are dressed in traditional folk costume and attempt to dance on stage for the whole school...
