Vacation: The last days.

On my last day in Berlin, Silke and Ulf took Lucas Anton and I to the German equivilant of the white house. The Reichstag is what its called. It has a huge glass dome on the top of a very old building, and visitors are allowed to go into the dome and climb to the top. The view was amazing, and you could see lots of Berlin. The elevator was bad though. They shoved at least twenty people into a very small elevator, and we were all pushed up very close to each other. We then went to an exclusivly French mall, where literally, everyone spoke French. I found my treasure there though. A 5 liter jar of nutella. I bought five! Just kidding! But I could literally get a workout from lifting that thing around. Our last stop in Berlin was a square that had two identical churches close together, and has been dubbed, the most beautifull square in Berlin. But I lied, there was one more VERY important place I went to. It was only the worlds largest chocolatorium. That's all. Just me surrounded by tons of chocolate, drinking hot chocolate, eating chocolate moose, feasting my eyes on the massive chocolate sculptures, and it would have been great if I could have put my head underneath the small chocolate fountain. Surprisingly, they don't let you do that in Germany. :) This whole vacation was absoloutly wonderfull. The next day, we all packed ourselves into the I.C.E train, travleled 135 miles per hour, and came back home. There was a surprise for me though at the door. A package full of treats from America! It was a great thing! We lounged around the rest of the day. The next day, Lucas, Anton, and I went for a run, and then swept leaves out of the yard. I got myself prepared for the coming school week., and finished off the day with a good game if settlers of Catan. Vacation has been wonderfull.
