This week was the best week ever while being here in germany! First, I have to mention our basketball game. This game was our best game yet only I wish we would have won! We lost in overtime by 3 points. Our fans were great and very supportive which made it easier to play and I love playing for them. Our next home game is Nov 19th and hope that you would join us in striving for our first home win! After the game, one of our biggest fans Simone and her friends took us to a bar to have a beer and play darts. Darts is starting to become one of my favorite games here in germany however is not common in the U.S.A. I was also introduced to a great mixed beer called "Goassnmas" which was very tasty and is my favorite beer here by far. I really had a great time and it took my mind off the game for a few hours which was well needed.
The next day we planned a trip to see some friends up in Nordligen. As I mentioned in a previous blog, our friends play for Donau-Ries Heli Girls team and are also from the same hometown we are from San Diego, CA. We took the train ( me and toya) to this city which took about 3 hours. This experience was very interesting because it was our first time ever taking a train here and we did pretty good for the first time. We were okay until we reached the city Munich and did not know there were 3 stops just within the city of Munich. We got off at the wrong stop in Munich which made us late for our next train to Donaworth. Our stop was supposed to the central station stop but we got off at the stop before the central station. We finally got on the right train heading to our destination and make it just in time for our friends game which started at 4pm. Unfortunately they lost but were very excited to see us because we were celebrating our 1st Halloween experience here in Germany with them. They had a Costume party with their team and us and will be a night we will never forget. We only stayed one night and had to come back for practice the next day.
Later on in the week, we went with our team manager (Nadine) to a city called Garmisch.
We were very excited because this city has a military base where there is an American grocery store. We bought tons of snacks, drinks, and other food items that we can relate too. It was great to see some things in the store that we can get back in the USA that is not provided here in Bad Aibling. These experiences will be most memorable and Im sure there are many more to come! Well that's all for now!
Guten Nacht,
