German Bucket List

I mentioned in my last post that my friend and I were discussing the list of things we wanted to get done in our remaining here in Germany because it will be gone before we know it. Here are the things that were on my German bucket list:

1. Go to Oktoberfest in Munich.
        ~I am not a beer drinker myself but I have met people who have said it is something everyone should experience regardless of whether they drink or not. The mass amount of people and the festivals and just pure madness going on has got to be pretty entertaining.

2. Go to Rome, Italy
       ~ This was my main goal in coming here to Germany is being able to take a trip to Rome. I am a huge history buff and love seeing history in today's world. I am the type of person that would rather go here than Paris any day!!

3. Go to Nuremburg for the Christmas market
      ~ This city, not sure I spelled it right, has the largest Christmas market in Germany. I love going to the Christmas markets around here but I think it would be one of the greatest experiences in Germany.

4. See as many castles as possible
     ~ This is just a pretty generic one. I think it is awesome to be driving down the autobahn and see castle ruins all the way down the road.

5. Learn more german before I leave
     ~ I have been incredibly slack about learning german. I know what you might be thinking, "Why start learning now?" I don't want to miss out on the opportunity to learn a foreign language while living in a foreign city.

That is all that is on the list right now, maybe more later.
