Tuesday 5/17

It has been a crazy trip so far! The first day (days?) included a
whirlwind of flying and no sleeping, but we all made it here safe and
sound! On Sunday we went to a Catholic mass at a monastery and a castle,
which was pretty cool. I started feeling sick that day and was sadly not
prepared for how cold it got, but I definitely learned my lesson. I
ended up feeling very sickly that night and loosing my voice, so I went
to the doctor on Monday. One of the student workers from the AIB went
with me thank goodness because the doctor didn't speak any English. Her
name was Maggie. She was really interesting and made the wait at the
doctors office very pleasant. I ended up getting lots of drugs and
feeling better by the next morning. I'm so glad because that meant that
I was able to go to the Cologne zoo! The animal version of body worlds
was there and it was pretty dang awesome! We then went to the Cologne
Cathedral for a roof top tour.... I didnt realize it mean walking along
the gutters outside on the roof. I wasn't crazy about that part of the
day. A couple of other people were not either, so that at least made me
feel better.
