March 13 2011 Nordlingen Germany, day of excitement!








We're all pooped. The bus ride from the Munich airport to Nordlingen, Germany is where everyone caught up on their sleep-- I got the greatest picture of an entire bus full of passed out people. Our hotel was amazing as we had two floors! I never heard of something like that in Canada. It was even more spectacular when we got to watch Spongebob in German! Despite all of the escitement, we all had to get spiffied up to go on our walking tour and a reception with THE MAYOR. I certanly felt special. The walking tour was amazing as the houses were so gorgeous and historical. Soon after, we had the great opportunity of having drinks with the mayor who informed us that the founders of Nordlingen aided in the founding of Markham and Toronto, Ontario as well-- pretty interesting huh? We then ate dinner at a little restaurant in town which had horrible service yet delicious food. I guess they just weren't used to such a large group. We also had the great opportunity of celebrating my good friend, Perrin's birthday here! We ate salad, chicken and gravy, potatoes, and zucchini! Then, during free time, we explored the town at night which was quiet and scary, but beautiful. Walking on the wall at night was an amazing experience. I love my band family so much and I'm glad this was just the first day.
