Hey everyone!
I am having a great week here in Berlin. Its crazy to think we only really have one more week here. I saw Barack Obama today - how exciting! I have seen him in Oshkosh, Iowa, Berlin and will see him in Denver! We started a new book yesterday, which I really like. Its called "a problem from hell" by Power. Its a good read, more like a novel then a text book of some sort.
I am getting sick I think. I have a stuffed up nose and my throat hurts, but its nice that I can have a long weekend to do school work and not exert my self too much with traveling and not feeling well at the same time.
Yesterday we went to the Laundry mat. Thank god. It was getting bad. Now with clean cloths and a new appreciation for Berlin (in contrast to prague :) ) I am having an awesome time.
Today before the speech we went to a concentation camp right out side of Berlin. Its so scarey to be in a room and almost feel the presense of all those souls that have died there. In some ways I look at it as a blessing that the evidence of camps still exsist, so that they can remain like a reminder to the future generations that might otherwise just forget.
I pray that never happens.
Amy
