    Wilkommen zurück! I hope you all enjoyed the last two posts, I think I can keep on posting like this at least for a while. So let’s pick back up and finish my fall trip through Northern Germany.    We start on October 16, while we drive towards Bremerhaven, a harbor-city on the North Sea. It was about a three hour trip from Lübeck, and we arrived quite late. However, we were very lucky to be staying in a very, very nice hotel. We were right on the harbor, with a great view, comfortable beds, and easy access to Bremerhaven’s main attraction: the Klimahaus.

Hallo jeder! I’m back again with the second leg of our vacation through northern Germany, where we visited Schwerin and Lübeck. I’ll just pick up directly after we left Warren, on October 15th.    After we said goodbye to our family friend and Warren, we headed towards Schwerin, about two hours away. Once there, we stopped by the youth hostel we would be staying in and got settled. We then headed right into the city and started our sightseeing. Schwerin’s main attraction is a massive palace, built centuries ago but made in it’s current form in the middle of the 1800s. It was huge, elegant, golden, and beautiful. We first walked around it’s gardens, before going inside to see the part of it that is used today as a museum. Luckily they had just about the whole thing in english, so it wasn’t difficult to understand anything. The museum was very interesting, and we had a really good time there.                   ...
