Catch-up Post 2
Last time in Julien's life, he met and battled with a Morven, and wrestled with new timetables, now for an even greater challenge, the Tom!
The rest of the week passed without great incident or noteworthy thing to report. Taught a new class H7 which was interesting, and they seemed to be ok with me, so tis all good. The only other thing was that on Thursday my German language class was cancelled, which meant I was at a bit of a loose end on Thursday, but I did a little bit of reading for my German Year Abroad Essay, so that's all good. Also downloaded skype at some point during this week, and started using it!
Tom arrived on Friday afternoon, after dumping stuff back at mine we went back into Dresden, met up with my former housemate Manuella, and we went to the christmas market, after a Gluhwein, Manuela went on her way. Me and Tom stayed and had another one. We went then to have something to eat met up with Manuella again before she went off to a party. Went onto another bar for a few more beers, before heading home. Saturday I showed Tom round Dresden, and we ended up back at (guess where) the Christmas market, more Christmas market stuff was consumed, before we headed home to warm up, (gawd was it cold). We then met up with Tomek and went for a few drinks in a couple of bars.
The next day me Tomek Louise and Tom all went to a photographic exhibition, at least we tried to, cos we couldn't find it cos it was closed, we then tried to find a Christmas exhibition at the city hall. That was closed as well (this was Sunday we're talking about). So plan c was a trip to a cable car up a hill which is in the east of the city. Twas fun, we walked down, cos we're glutton for getting cold like that. We found a small Christmas market near the bottom of this cable car, which was cool cos it was, smaller, cosier, and less crowded than the main Dresden one. The fact one of the stalls where we got out Gluhwein (amongst other things) gave us a free shot, probably also endeared it to us. Then it was off to one of the bars near uni, before Tomek and Louise headed home. Me and Tom then went to a Chinese in Neustadt. Went back to the station, and Tom got his night train home, although not before accidentally leaving his hat, so I now have his uber-cool hat until the next time I see him, woohoo!
