Weekend to Remember - Week 6

Karneval Weekend!!

Karneval was one crazy weekend! The atmosphere in Bonn and Koln changes in such a unique way. The moment you step outside you have no idea what you’re going to see and what you’re going to encounter. I am so happy I got to experience Karneval at least once and to call it “a weekend to remember” is an understatement.

My favorite part of this weekend was walking in the parade. Not a lot of people get the opportunity to actually be a part of such a monumental event so it was very cool to throw candy to people yelling out “Kamelle.”  

My least favorite part about this weekend was getting stuck in some random town in between Koln and Bonn. Apparently there was something/someone on the tracks so the train (which was carrying at least 400 people) came to a complete stop and forced everyone to get off. Not only that, but someone stole the taxi that we called so we had to wait an hour in the cold hoping a train would come soon. On top of that, when the train actually came you were literally squished in between people you hope didn’t smell too much like beer.

Needless to say, this weekend was pretty fun. There were definitely some high and low moments but it was one heck of a weekend.
