Die Ende für Deutschland

Not only is it the end for the National soccer team, but also for my stay here in this beautiful country that I have come to like so dearly. The game last night was really something. Aside from the lack of enthusiasm from the team, the crowd was loud and proud. We had a great time. I was wearing my national team jersey, had my face painted, and was also wearing a flag and scarf.

I went on a bike ride today, a solo tour, with my video camera to make a film of the town that I have been living in. I think I will take a video tomorrow of the school, the bakery, and so on. I will certainly miss my German family when I leave. But my host mother is talking me into returning for the World Cup in two years. Anyone up for a trip?

Tonight is a birthday party for Karen. She turned sixteen yesterday and since the game was last night, we are having the party today.

That is all for now.
Miss all you Americans!
My peace and love--as always
B
