8. Blog - New Year's Eve in Berlin

(31. December 2011 - Berlin, Germany)

Sydyney kept her promise and came back to Berlin for New Year's Eve 2011.
These were really special days for her. First she saw "Tanz der Vampire" - The Musical, second the was able to visit the "Reichstag's Dome" and most importantly the saw the beautiful fireworks that welcomed the year 2012 above Berlin's skyline.


Sydney was really glad to experience so many great memories in a bit more than a year and already plans many more for the future! :)

7. Blog - Trip around California

(15. - 25. June 2011 - California, United States of America)

My exchange year was over and Sydney and my mom came back to the U.S. from Germany to come and get me.
But of course we could't leave without new adventures and especially new pictures! ;) So we did a little trip around California.
First we started in Las Vegas and visited some of the famous casinos and malls. Sydney really wanted to try out the arcade games, but she wasn't 21 yet. :/ So she decided to come back in November 2031 and win a million dollars.... I can't wait to see that! ;)
Then we moved on to San Fransisco. Fishermen's Wharf, Alcatraz Island, Aquarium of the Bay... we saw everything! :) And to prove that Sydney posed in front of everthing! ;) She especially liked the Golden Gate Bridge and was really scared when I put her into on of the prison cells. But it turned out to be a cool picture! ;)
San Fransisco is a beautiful city, but we could't stay there forerever, so we drove down the Highway No. 1 and got to Los Angeles. :) Sydney was really excited, because she wanted to see all the celebrities, but then she had to realize that they normally do not hang out at the tourism sights as we did. Nevertheless she got a picture in front of the Hollywood sign. :) Later at the "Walk of Fame" Sydney had to learn that they didn't write her name the wrong way, but she in fact didn't get a star. She was really upset! :(
