Germany through my camera

I have finally lived up to my promise. Rather than posting another newsy post, I will let these pictures allow you to see where I have been the past few weeks. The pictures happen to be in reverse chronological order. (Posting pictures is not so intuitive with this blog). I will go back and add more from earlier from my time in Marburg on another blog post.

Sunset in Münster over the Aasee. No words needed.

Münster. Beautiful city, cold. Official bike city of Germany. There are more bikes than residents in the city.



Like most cities, there was a very lively market in the city on Saturday. I love the street markets in Germany!

Weekend in the Eifel, a National Park in NRW, with SMD. I walked down to this lake with a group of students. Beautiful place!


Note the windmill. These are everywhere here.

On the way back from Vaals (Holland) on my bike on a Sunday afternoon. What type of partnership does Aachen have with Arlington, Virginia?

The UGLY Uni Klinic, and the sheep that are directly behind this monstrosity.

My home sweet home at the Sinkens! This door says welcome home in Würseln!

One of many horses around Aachen. Aachen is well known for its equestrian.

View from the ferris wheel in Aachen. I rode this with Willi, Anne and Marietta the first time I met them in the city. 99 red air balloons...However, I did not ride the hot air balloon :)

This is the landscape located at the border museum from the old East/West Germany. The scenery is breathtaking there.

Former watch tower- I was fascinated with the tour and the extremes the DDR went to keep their citizens inside their borders.

Dreilandereck- Germany, Holland, and Belgium at one point.
