Day 6: A Visit to Nürnberg

Mili (my exchange partner) and I woke up and went to the bus stop, then went on a train to get to our school in Weiden.  When we made it to school, Herr Trofimuk told the German students about American schools.  German schools are really different!  Then we got on the bus and went to the city of Nürnburg.   



Katie, along with most of the students, often nap on our bus rides.  

When we were there we saw the Kaiserburg Castle.   It was up really high on a steep hill. 





Then we walked to the square and saw a church.  It was so big and beautiful!  




students look at the stone model of Nürnberg







Nick takes photos of the group and the tower in the main square.



Tori spins the ring on the tower, which is supposed to mean that you will be blessed with children in the future.  



Shawna, Britni, and Mili look at a map together of Nürnberg before going shopping.  

Then we got to shop!!  There lot's of souvenir stores and American places such as Starbucks and H & M.   There were so many places to shop and the streets were really crowded.  Everyone had a great time.  (Britni Brandstetter)




Katie bought a mini traditional Cuckoo Clock for her family at home.
