What's Up?

Well Sorry to disappoint our readers for the momentary laps of laziness. Things are going well in Europe. Today I changed some money and am sad to say that I paid $1.65 for 1 Euro. This is no good. This weekend we are off to Berlin to do some sight seeing and other fun things. Today was Professor DeRooy's last day and we wish him safe travels on his way to the Netherlands to visit family. Professor Nielson will be taking over and we are excited to here from him.

Last weekend we spent some time out in Bremerhaven. This is the sister city to Bremen, a port city. It was a day trip with a little sight seeing and walking. We split up into two groups and went to a few different places. One group went to the Immigration Center in the city, where I went. This is one of the main places people from around Europe ended up on their way to the new world. It was a great experience. We were given names of people that had gone through there and we were able to follow their life before and after immigrating. The other group went to a shipping museum that had a tall ship and a few other nice looking boats. Here are some photos of the city, and pictures of the boat tour we went on. Big boats!
