Today I decided to do a little more adventuring, but when I woke of up of course it was raining. I looked up the weather and it said only in the morning. So around 1 the sun came out, seemed like it'd be a nice day. So off I went...
Here are a few pictures and things...
This first one is my school. Mariengymnasium. Took me about 17ish minutes to walk there with my blister limp, so should be about 15 min. on average.
These two are of the horse riding school, as many of you know I happen to live at the mecca for German horse riders.
We have a lake! Emssee... ( I think) There's parks all around it, and it was actually quite pretty. Lots of birds too. (Not so pretty)
Another picture of "downtown" Warendorf. Whole place is a lot older than I thought. Quite the happening town in the 14-1500s
Now as I mentioned about my town has a thing about horses...so about every store/restaurant has this large plastic horse outside that they paint to match their store. Here are probably my favorites.
1.Lochness horse (in the middle of the lake)
2. Um no clue what the store is, but it's on the side of the building
3. Denture horse (on top of a dentist's office)
And what town wouldn't be complete with a Mister Ed's pub. (Irish pub, I do believe).
Those pictures might be all out of order...so anyway, here I am enjoying myself and being outside rather than in my apartment, and Germany decided I didn't deserve that. So it started pouring. I mean pouring.
Naturally I was about a half hour or so from home. So I started the trek back *Disclaimer absolutely nothing is open on Sunday.* After I finally get back to my apartment, water literally dripping from me and upstairs to change. I go back to the window and guess what. It's sunny with blue skies ahead.
Who knows, but at least I was outside for a whole 2 hours today. It's supposed to rain for the bulk of the week and hover around 60 degrees. So that's not fantastic, but I am making plans for a weekend trip to Bochum on Saturday.
Bis bald,
Sara
