Five weeks flew by and I am finally home after being delayed in Montreal and missing my flight in Chicago and having to stay in the Hilton in Chicago for the night. I am excited to have passed my German language course and be home! The class helped me become quite a bit better at reading writing German I am still going to have to work on the spoken part some. I learned a lot in Germany and met a lot of new friends I am so glad I went! I learned a lot about culture, different business ideas, language and many other things. I would recommend that everyone study abroad at least once!

Happy 4th of July! Yesterday I went to Point Alpha which was a USA military base back during the cold war which sat right a long the border between East and West. It was very interesting and cool to learn about how Germany use to be when it was divided. Today is my last day of classes and then I have one test tomorrow! My parents, grandma, and aunt and uncle are coming to Schmalkalden tomorrow to pick me up. I can't wait to see them and hear about there tours of Germany. It is hard to believe that five weeks has gone by so fast, but I am ready to be home.
