The New Europe Programm Spring 2010 arrived! After a turbulent journey via icy London Heathrow, the New Europe Student finally made their way to Bonn. A great academic semester with trips to Berlin, Prag, and Spain lies ahead of them...and what could have been a better start than spending a day in the snowy Eifel region.
Amazed by so much (real) snow, the LA natives not only enjoyed a mass service in the abbey church of Maria Laach, a masterpiece of German Romanesque architecture, but also spent a whole lot of time in Monreal, a picturesque little town a good hour south of Bonn.
The only thing that was more exciting than the snow? The hot chocolate afterwards...
