After I was in Paris I went to Mauschbach, Germany. Yes, I'm sure you are wondering where that is, it is a small town in southwest Germany right next to the French boarder. Population approx. 250 haa. I wound up there to visit a friend who lived in good ol Litchpatch for a year as an exchange student while I was a senior in High School. Larissa and her parents, Werner and Martina welcomed me into their home for a few days and showed me incredible hospitality. While I was there I had a few first experiences ; my first football (soccer) game, my first time eating that many types of German sausage, and my first time at the Europa amusement park (a step up from valley fair). I am completely sold on the countryside of southwest Germany, it was beautiful! A special thanks to the Haefners family, you made my trip especially wonderful!

| Just a little encouragement on their way to the stadium. |
 |
| And we can't forget to welcome the opponent..... |

The bright yellow people are saving the opponents from the rest of the fans.....
I would fear for my life if I was them. |
 |
| It was a full house. |

Well, yes, I found some sweets!
