I'm back from Germany now. It was absoloutely incredible and i hope to return soon. The Cathedral in Cologne was breathtaking. Absoloutely amazing. The people are fabulous! I had such a great time! Thank you to those who posted comments on my updates page encouraging and supporting me to be fearless on the trip over even though i am terrified of flying! The flights weren't too bad. It was worse on the way over because we encountered a lot of turbulence while flying over the atlantic ocean. It was scarey! But the trip home was very smooth and relaxing. I actually got some sleep which usually never happens on the plane for me. Thanks again! Stay in touch!
