Yesterday's Fakuma show was such an amazing experience for us. It was neat to be able to see some stuff relevant to our major, and it was even more interesting interacting with people who spoke different languages. A small group of us went to a truly German-speaking restaurant in Kreuzlingen. The restaurant waitress could speak very little broken English, and when we went to read the menus, we had no idea what anything was. The head chef ended up being able to help us out by reading off the menu to us, explaining the deer dishes with the word 'Bambi'. It ended up being a delicious meal.
Today, we explored Konstance, Germany. It was a two minute train ride away from our hostel, and it was a lot more lively than Kreuzlingen. The main thing we saw there were the many small shops and plazas, along with their mall. In the evening, we had our farewell dinner at a German brewery. This was a good way for everyone to get together and talk about their individual experiences and tell the teachers likes and dislikes of the trip. Most of us were ready to be getting back to Erie, feeling homesick and missing good old Penn State Behrend.
