Tübingen and on the way to Rothenburg ob der Tauber

So this post and the next few are going to be shorter, just as an fyi. The stays were shorter and if I don't talk about everything in one post I will forget something.

Late Wednesday Afternoon I rode on the train to go to Tübingen and arrive by 9pm. Lisa's aunt took me in for 3 nights. She was really sweet to me and I enjoyed her family a lot as well. Tübingen is where I am going to be spending a semester next school year and so this was just so I could go there and see the town as I was in Germany anyways. I also had a meeting with people taking care of my program there which was a good time to get to know them.

So Thursday I slept in and did a bit of laundry and then it was off to my meeting. Ingrid dropped me off a little early so I walked around that block area for a bit so I could familiarize myself with my surroundings. Then I went and met with the two people and talked about my program. With my program I will be doing a four week long language course in one of 4 or 5 cities that I will have to choose from. It was neat to hear where I could go so that I can be thinking about it now and not later while I am in Spain. I even think I have come to a decision. We talked about the different things offered in Tübingen and offered with the program. The more I find out about my program the more I believe that it is perfect for me.

That night I went out with the people I had met in Kiel that are down in Tübingen and they brought their friend Tom. We just kind of walked around town a bit and they told me about the different things students like to do in Tübingen. Friday was a slow day, I didn't do much and then I went to an open air music festival in a park in Tübingen. It is free to get in and it was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed Tübingen a lot.

On Saturday morning I left and rode the train for a little more than 3 hours to Munich. There I dropped my suitcase off with Mirja and stopped by Kordula's apartment to ask about staying over night with her on the following Tuesday night. Mirja and I talked for a while and it was just really good to talk to her again. I really enjoyed that.

Then I took the trains for a bit more than 3 hours again to go to Rothenburg ob der Tauber, where I was to meet up with my brother on Sunday. The next post will be about Rothenburg, just to break things up a bit.
