Day 3: A Field Trip to Regensburg

I woke up, had breakfast, and went to school. Mr. B, a history teacher at the German school,  gave a lesson about modern German history. Then we went for a walk in Weiden and got coffee. We went back to the school and got on a bus to Regensburg.

Mr. B uses an umbrella as a pointer to show the buildings the group saw today on a stone city layout / map.

We saw a beautiful Cathedral and took lots of pictures! Went to lunch in a beautiful restaurant called Fürstliches Brauhaus. Tori and I had chicken salads. The salad already had the dressing on it, but it wasn't mixed.

A truck, one of many that day, drives scarily close to our group as we head towards the boat ride.  

Then we went on a boat ride together on the Donau (Danube.) Tori, Tanja, Kristin and I went into a store called "Mango" and tried on dresses. I almost got T-boned by a BMW. It was awesome. HAHA. Overall today was nice other than the weather. (Sierra Huellen)
