Germany

The S Bahn station in Feucht, the Nuremberg suburb where Lucinda lives.

Glühwein is very popular at the Christmas markets... and very delicious.

And then it was winter...

Not long before Thanksgiving, it got cold very suddenly and Lille saw it's first wintry weather of the season. We've now had our first snow, which is still on the ground and looking lovely. 

Even though this blog is going to be quite short, I did make a point of taking some pictures of our first snow for you and wanted to be sure to share them.

Going to university on Thanksgiving Day? Oh so unfortunate.

Hello all,

Apologies for not writing recently and constantly being slow to answer e-mails. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I'm sad I won't be watching the Macy's parade, cooking, and within easy phone call distance of the people I care about most. I have a busy weekend of studying ahead, but I will be in touch soon. Oh, hey, it's snowing outside...

Happy Thanksgiving!

- Rosalind

p.s. Have some pie.

p.p.s. Yes, that pie is in a rectangular pan.

Fall break, et quelques autres petites choses

Okay, so maybe not so very small. More like taking some big steps toward solidifying my travel plans for December. Today I got a train pass for France, Germany, and Switzerland - and it looks like I'm definitely going to see Lucinda in Germany at the beginning of the month! I also confirmed my reservation at the Foyer International Etudiantes for Christmas and bought my train ticket to Paris.
