Hello Everyone!
On Saturday, Megan and I took the ferry across to Warnemunde where we walked the streets and soaked up the beauty of everything around us.

Our first stop was at a boat on the inlet of the harbor that sold fried fish sandwiches - a speciality on the Northern Coast of Germany. We weren't quite sure what we were ordering since the lady working on the boat did not speak English, but thankfully there was a man nearby who helped us order in German. We soon realized that we will need to brush up on our Deutsch rather quickly. Nevertheless, the sandwich tasted amazing!

We then climbed to the top of an old lighthouse that overlooked the entire city. The view was beautiful, but the height was a bit terrifying!

After Conquering our fear of heights, we decided to reward ourselves with some soft serve ice cream from one of the many vendors in town. It seems to be quite popular here!

Saturday night, we went to a BBQ in a garden in Rostock. Here in Germany, many people buy plots of land on which they can garden. I absolutely love the concept!

That night, we sat around a fire pit, ate sausages, drank A LOT of beer, and listened to songs a few of the people we work with were playing on the guitar. We were there until about 3:30 in the morning, about the time it started to get light out!

I may have had a bit too much beer...

On Sunday, I slept in until the early afternoon and watched netflix on the boat all day. In the evening, I went out and watched the seals as they dozed off to sleep.

| It was a lazy sunday for everyone! |
On Thursday, Megan and I will be traveling to Berlin! We cannot wait for this adventure so expect a lot of stories and pictures to accompany them when we return!
Love,
Vanessa
