More Photos...

We (Lorraine, Owen, Daniel, Audrey, Justine, Stephen) had just walked FOR AN HOUR to get into town...and then we collapsed in this lovely park. And Lorraine made exhausted faces.

A nice building on the promenade (if you think that is spelled wrong, that's because it's in German)...right along the edge of the Bodensee.

In town (Friedrichshafen) there is this tall observation tower that goes out over the water and lets you look at all of Friedrichshafen and across the lake into Austria and Switzerland. Yesterday when a group of friends and I walked (FOR AN HOUR!!!) into town we climbed up to the top and got this lovely view, stretching from Friedrichshafen, which is the main large town, and down the coast to Fischbach, the smaller town where my school is.

On Friday night, we had what was called 'International Night.' Each country had to somehow represent itself and do some sort of presentation for the rest of the students and staff. The Americans decided to make a movie joking around with all the stereotypes of each individual state. I'll see if I can get a copy of the whole thing to post here. Anyway, these guys (left to right, Owen, Daniel, and Eric) were representing Texas (even though Daniel is the only one actually from Texas). Let's just say, it was a hysterical movie clip involving Texas-hick accents, oversized bellies, and the stars and stripes being replaced with 'ONE BIIIIIIG STAR RIGHT IN THE CENTER!!!'

This is one of my three roommates, Lisi. Sie kommt aus Österreich (She comes from Austria). I kind of caught her off guard :-)
