We went into Altenburg today! It was soo pretty, there is a market that goes down the middle of the street that sells everything you could imagine.. I climbed a huge tower to see over all of Altenburg.. it was amazing!
My Host Family: I have one sister and one brother.. my sister is very nice and quiet but very good at english.. my brother is verrry funny and cooks well.. the parents are very nice, the mother knows english a very little bit and the father none. There are two cats and a little kitten who i loveee it is absolutly precious.. and it doesnt speak german so i dont have to worry if it understands me haha.. there are a ton of bunny rabbits and chickens and roosters that wake me up every morning! very cool! Also there is a cow! haha it is very old and doesnt produce any milk but its cool anywayss! there is no clothes dryer so all the laundry dries outside on a clothes line which is new haha and the moped still scares me but i ride on the back praying the whole time!
I finally found a bank that takes my money.. the dollar is worth nothing for the euro.. i withdrew 200 euros and it cost me 275 dollars.. RIDICULOUS!!!!!!! haha.. the mcdonalds here doesnt have a dollar menu =( its actually pretty expensice.. there are no anysiye drinks for a dolar six. haha the larg (actually size of american medium) cost like three dollars or something..
I didn't get much sleep last night, tossed and turned a ton!
Pray for my familys trip to Florida for Ansley's Nationals Basketball tournament! Im sure they wil have a blast wish them luck!
Lovee -Emily
