Well there was a little more that went on Thursday. From 7:30-8:30 PM we went to a swim practice. Anna Rust has a little sister named Laura and she is on a swim team. The practice realy wasn't that hard but we were DIEING and gasping for air. Well.... that's what we get for not having practice for 3 weeks. And we haven't had an actual SWIM practice for 4 months. But as you might have guessed, we are still alive. There wasn't a lot of people there, about 10 people, but therer was another soccor game. This soccor game was part of the European Champianships and this game determined if Germany went to the finalls or not. It was Portugal v Germany and we won 3-2. Kaelei and Kali went the city park to watch it outside with Anna and her friends. It was crazy because the city goes WILD for this game. You could not belive how crazy it was. Lisha stayed home with Quinn and Benny's family and whenever a goal was made by Germany the house went into an earthquake with noise and people jumping up and down with excitement. Becasue this was such a big game the swim practice was cut short. Usualy it goes till 9:00 PM but it was shortened to 8:30 for the game. Tori (Quinn's daughter) came with us to swim practice but didn't swim with us. Lisha asked Tori how long the pool was because it looked about 25 yards but she knew it had to be in meters or someting. Tori said 50 meters. There was NO WAY it was 50 meters! We've seen a 50 meter pool! So Lisha and Tori went back and forth a few times arguing about how long it was becasue she KNEW it couldn't be 50 meters. So she asked one of the other swimmiers (in German) how long it was. "25 meters." He was laughing while he said it because he knew English quite well and knew exactly what they were talking about. Lisha was all excited and was teasing Tori a little bit about how she was right. But Tori was fine with it becasue she made some jokes about it after.
Friday
Because we were up kinda up late Thursday night Quinn let us sleep in. We woke up at 12:30 in the middle of the day. We were a so supprised that we actualy slept in that long! Not just one of us slept in that long, ALL THREE of us did! It was quite funny. Today we all went different ways Kaelei went to Pauline's, Kali went with Anna to get her hair done for the ball that night, and Lisha went rock climing with Steffen. While Kaelei was at Pauline's house she had a ton of fun, they played the wii and then they watched a movie in german so she could start learning the language. Also one of Pauline's friends came over to hang out with her, her name was Carmon. She was happy to get to know new people. Later on at around 8:00 they started playing Ligretto Kaelei LOVED it! They played it until around 9:45. Then they took her home. (Kali will add to this post later about what she did). Lisha went rock climing with Steffen, Quinn's brother in-law. She had a lot of fun. She said that going up the wall was so much fun, untill she got to the top and didn't really know how to get down. Steffen told her just to fall backward and the rope will catch her but she was till scard. It took her about 3 minutes to get ready to fall but she did it and repelled down the wall. She also went through an obstical chors that made her very tierd but it had a zip line that was tones of fun. She went all the way down the zip line up side down. CRAZY! And she had her camera but forgot to ask Steffen to take any pictures of her climbing, so she doen't have any pictures of herself climbing! But oh well, we'll have to live.
