Since we had a fairly busy week with tests, the Otto Bock
project, and Aachen I decided a calm weekend was needed. Friday night I had
dinner with my host family and watched a movie with them. The movie was in
German (with English subtitles) and was a parody of Ocean’s Eleven. It seemed
like it would be a funny film if I knew German because many of the jokes were a
play on words in German, so I sat there confused at times while my host family
was cracking up. Even though the jokes were over my head for the most part, I
still enjoyed spending some time with my host family. Saturday I caught up on
some sleep and then headed to AIB to work and hang out with some of the
bioscience kids who stayed in town. Then a few of us went to a Spanish
restaurant close by for dinner and I got some more delicious paella! I love
seafood and was afraid before coming to Germany that I wouldn’t be able to find
good seafood, but I have been pleasantly surprised with all the yummy paella
and other fish I’ve had here! Today is a beautiful day so I had brunch in the
backyard with my host family in the morning and later they are making BBQ for
dinner. I’m really interested to see if their version of BBQ is what I am used
to in Texas, but I’m sure either way it’ll be good! Besides that, I’m just
trying to catch up on some work before we leave for Berlin tomorrow morning. It
sounds like AIB has a lot of cool events planned for us in Berlin plus we have
our presentation for Otto Bock, so next week will be an exciting one!
