Mannheim, Germany

The Stadtbahn into Mannheim is a wonderful ride. Although it's unseasonably warm here, it was a blast to go into Mannheim on the train.
Mannheim is a large city and reminds me a lot of Paris (believe it or not, I know it sounds silly). Maybe it's my virgin American eyes, but it has some very cool places and cafes/coffeshops/bakeries everywhere.
Tonight, we went downtown for dinner and it was another wonderful meal in Europe! We sat outdoors in the great little place called "Hemingways". The waitress spoke some English and with our very limited, broken, mangled German we were able to have a great meal and a lot of fun (can you say Knoblauch Es ist Weiss, Ja?)
Photos are not uploading tonight... I'll try to update this tomorrow with images.

Hi Quinn, I just found your page on Caron's blog. I live and Germany and it's kind of interesting to read your blog. My husband is American too. Have fun discovering Germany! And yes I can say Knoblauch! I'm German. ;)
Hey looks like you guys are having fun. I will be checking in on yours and Summers blogs often. Enjoy the Beir for me. Bill Slaughter
It's awesome that Anke has connected with you here! I love how connections are made and that I can be a part of that. :-) Now it would be so cool if you could actually meet up sometime.
Hi Anke, Bill and Caron! It's great to hear from all of you. Anke, if you've ever been to the states and experienced the "difference" there, amplify that by a thousand and you'll understand what I'm trippin' on. Your blog says your in the R-Pfalz, Are you AF? Military? Ramstein? You are very close to where I am. If you ever want to attend a show or talk art, attend a workshop, let me know, I'd like to meet you.
Bill, I will get your note written. Thanks for all the help. Stay in touch, keep the notes coming and keep Riverdale/UT inline ;-)
Caron,
I'll see you on the webcam/G-town!
