In Germany - Königstein




This post is by Ada and Karen:

We flew with Icelandair from Boston to Iceland and from there to Frankfurt. It was a long flight. Some of our first impressions of Germany is that it is sort of like America but also a bit different.

We have an apartment in a town called Königstein. There is a 700 hundred year castle in our town that we can see from our windows

We are very tired after a long trip. We go to our first game tomorrow: Germany vs. Nigeria.

There are lots of German flags here. People told us that theyare flying their flags from their cars and windows to support the German national team. They say it is not as much as in 2006 when the Men´s World Cup was held in Germany. A lot of people here though are into the Cup which is great.

We just finished our first meal in Germany. We went to an Italian restaurant which was weird since we are in GERMANY. Our fathers ordered a gross pizza. It wasn´t gross - it was big (get it?).

Above are pictures from our room and from our balcony.

  1. Hi Ada and Karen!

    This is Quinn. I think USA will beat Brazil in the finals 1 to 0. Anyway, was the gross pizza "gross?" Will you go to the castle in your town? I hope you have fun at your Nigeria vs. Germany game! Signing out from Lindley Terrace!

  3. Great to know of you in Germany.
    I am of course supporting Japan in the World Cup and delighted about their win over New Zealand today.
    GO JAPAN!
    I predict USA vs Japan in the finals
    it will go into penalty kick outs. With a heartbreak missed penalty just past the goal USA will lift the trophy.
    Hopefully we will watch that match together in Iceland.
