Our group took an overnight trip to the Eifel region of Germany.
The first stop was a Benedictine Monastery in Maria Laach.
We attended an all-German mass here!
Next, we toured Schloss Bürresheim,
a castle that withstood the wars of the 18th and 19th century.
It can even be seen in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade!
For lunch, I tried my first wiener schnitzel,
& I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious it was!
I did not know what to expect,
but knew I had to try this popular German dish!
We spent the remainder of the day in Monreal,
a tiny village within the region.
We had so much fun sledding (sometimes into trees)
and exploring ruins of castles!
The village is quiet and quaint...
It reminds me of something out of Disneyland!
I loved taking a special nightwalk!
All we had were torches to light our way,
but it was a perfect way to end the night!
