first: happy election day! i hope you didn't have to wait in line too long to vote.
sorry again for a huge delay in updating this, i've been traveling a lot and had some lovely visitors.
fall break was great and i think my family had a lot of fun on our trip-- my favorite part was probably visiting the small towns in southern germany where people seriously wore liederhosen as a daily situation... it was pretty hillarious. i also just really liked showing my family around prague and sharing the greatness that this city has to offer-- overall, really good times.
and then having caitlin here after that was freaking awesome, and we explored a lot of prague that i hadn't been to before such as the wallenstien garden, the jewish cemetary, the museum of modern art, and i finally wrote on the lennon wall. we also took an epic adventure to berlin in which i never wanted to return from.
i have so much i could write here about all the places i recently visited but i'm not gonna bore you and instead just gonna give you the most important points:
- asolo, italy probably has the best pizza in the world
- we saw a man fall out of a gondola and into the water in venice
- the hills are in fact alive with the sound of music
- i want to rent a car and drive all over europe-- but first austria and germany
- i want to learn german
- berlin might be my favorite city in the world
i hope everyone is doing well-- i haven't heard from a lot of you in awhile so i hope that means things are really busy and exciting in your lives.
i've gotten like 7 hours of sleep in the past two nights combined so i'm pretty exhausted ( seems to be a recurring theme here..) so sorry for cutting this short.
i really hope that tomorrow we can wake up with a new hope for our country and our identity as americans. i will be glued to cnn all night as long as i can stay awake into the wee hours of the morning here.
