Before the Japan vs Australia game, we walked around Saarbrucken and went to Karstadt. Karstadt is like Macyfs with grocery attached. I was quite surprised with the quality of German products. Germans really make good kitchen stuff. Maybe it took me too long to realize thatc Anyways, we headed down to this little city called Kaiserslaterun. They got a nice stadium. Around the station was fool of Australians (Soccerooz) and Japanese soccer fans. I thought Japan was gonna rock Australiac until Australia scored like three goals in last minutec [..continue]
In Zaarland, people are chill. They don't mess with the inner city rat race stuff (j/k). My Saarbrucken friends were kind enough to take me to mountain bob sledding at some mountain. The view was spectacular! The weather was just right, and at the top of the mountain there is a little beer garden where people will drink beer. Germans sure do love dinking them beers.
After the sledding, Saarbrucken friends and I headed out to some huge lake. It is like a weekend hang out place for the people. Germans will bring their swimming wear and do their tanning here. Some will kick soccer ball, and some will even do the wind surfing. I've never seen a lake that is used like a beach, cool stuff.

I took the ICE (bullet train in Germany) to Mainz, and met up with my friend Tina. It was on Saturday so Mainz had an open market going on. It was awesome. A lot of local products were on the street from vegetables, fruits, flowers, etc. Good amount of French produces were there, too. In Mainz, you can find the Gutenberg museum. Although the Chinese were the first inventors of the printing, in the western world, Gutenberg is the first printing guy. It was quite impressing to find some of the old printing machines, and prints. You can say 95% of the printing back then was Jesus related stuff. Just like the numbers of Cathedrals in Europe.[..continue]
I walked around Frankfurt and along the Rhine River with my gay friend PPK. Haha, he is not gay, Ifm just kidding. Rhine River is like the chill zone for Germans, and it is the culture and life for Germans. A lot of castles were built along the river, etc. [..continue]
