Catching up...
Wow, the past few days have gone by so fast!! Sorry for the late update...
On Monday, WIGGY had a sport day due to older students testing. The boys headed out to play in a soccer tournament and the girls met in the gym for a volleyball tournament. Lexie played volleyball and her team came in 3rd place. Quite a few of the boys played in the soccer team and the team with mostly BBA students came in 2nd - losing in a PK tie-breaker. After the games were over everyone had free time. Many of us went to an indoor water park, some went shopping, and some spent quality time with their partners.
Yesterday we all went to school in the morning and then headed to the Mercedes Benz Museum. I think we all enjoyed looking at all the cars from history... all the way up to our current masterpieces. The museum is really well designed and included historical events from each time period of the cars. Some of us even went on a race car stimulator. We all ended in the gift shop and then headed back to the school. Once at school we parted ways for the evening.
Today we all attended school for the first two blocks and then headed to Esslingen. Here we enjoyed a tour of the town and historical landmarks, led by a long time exchange tour leader, Bärbel Hübner. After the beautiful vineyard views from the old tower on the hill, we all enjoyed some gelato and free time on the streets of the old city.
Our time ran out quickly as we had to get back to the school for the World Cup game. Most of us watched it on a big screen in the cafeteria. Unfortunately Germany lost, which means they are done for the season.
Tomorrow we head to another little city for even more adventures!
