Trip to Neckarsulm!

I said goodbye to Inka and got on a train to Neckarsulm to visit Patrick and his family. Patrick was completing his thesis and working in the same research lab I was at the University of Michigan. I arrived in Neckarsulm around 6:00 and Patrick picked me up from the train station. We went back to his parent’s house and had Pizza which his mom had made. It was great using my German. I knew what they were saying! At 8:30, we left his house and walk to his friends house. From there, the 5 of us went to the 8 ball to play pool and darts. It was a really fun evening!! The next day Patrick, Chris (Patrick’s friend), and I traveled to Bad Wimpfen to see some of the sites. The town was great!! Patrick is afraid of heights so Chris and I went up to the top of the castle see the tops of the houses of Bad Wimpfen (see picture). We then came back to Patrick’s house and had a spaetzle dinner with salad (see picture).



It was a wonderful meal! Before leaving to go to the train station at 4:00, Chris and I walked into the town of Neckarsulm to see some of the sites. Both Chris and Patrick took me to the train station. I got back to Lausanne at 10:15 just in time to check back into my hotel. The weekend was great!!
