So the program starts today but i cant believe here for 6 days already. France was unbelieveable So green and so pretty. You can read many books and watch all the movies you want, but nothing can prepare you for how small you feel next to the eiffel tower. or for the exquiste detail of every building you pass, especially Catherdrals. It is indescribable how beautiful they are.
Berlin was fantastic too. Since I will be going there for a week through the program we saw things I dont think we will see on the program. I did see the wall, but I still cant imagine the emotions that it holds for Germans. After it came down they made a point to build in the dead zone to show they were moving forward, so it is hard to feel the barrenness that was the east side of the wall. None the less it left a great impression on me. We went to a small castle outside of town it was beautiful. Kind frederick built the gardens as a place of solitude where he could read his poems and practice his art. You could get lost in there! every corner we turned had a new surprise and new buildings to explore.
that is it for now, time to start the program!!!
