last night we watched Germany beat Argentina in the center of Nuremburg with
about 15-20 thousand fans. it was absolutely crazy. there were so many
people pakced in around some televisions in a beer garden. we sat with some
germans that spoke english and were very kind. Germany won the game in
overtime with penalty shots -- the germans erupted with whistles and shots
and screaming and even crying when the team won.
today we visited Rothenburg with Almut. it is a nice town - we visited a
few churches, a medival torture and crime museum (quite interesting and a
little horiffic), the city hall, bought a few famous christmas ornaments,
and walked on the wall surrounding the city. it was a fun day.
tonight we ate our last dinner with Andreas and Gescha -- we had some
wonderful frankonian brautwurst, bread, and cucumber, tomato, and olive
salad. And then ... the Waggershausers served daniel and i their famous
strawberrz puch. it's a wonderful mixture of white wine, strawberries, and
champagne. it tastes marvelous -- i'll have to try and make it at home
sometime!
wow -- Brazil just beat France -- truly unbelievable. well ... love to you
all -- i'm off to have a little more strawberry punch!
I can see that the strawberry wine took an effect on you:) France beat brazil:)
ReplyDeleteHI Daniel and Tasha,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great reports on the Blog! I remember the Straberry Punch from Almuts Birthday when she lived with us. we made it in Minneapolis for her birthday. The games sound very fun and exciting. The Dish TV has been on at work in the conference room next to my desk from time to time. I'm sending an email too!
Love you MOM!
