Today is the day I leave for Germany! Everything is packed and now I just have to put the finishing touches on everything. I have all kinds of butterflies in my stomach; some nervous ones but mostly excited! I've gone over the full itinerary and I'm really looking forward to seeing the artistic pieces left of the Berlin Wall and seeing the Black Forest. I may still have distant relatives in both those areas but unfortunately I don't have their contact information. I still am so excited to see where have of my family came from! I also am really looking forward to meeting my host family. I'm sure they are really nice but I'm glade to be staying with Rachel. I think she will really help me to not feel homesick while I'm there. I hope I can do the same for her! I've also been looking at the weather in Berlin and Stuttgart and it looks absolutely beautiful! Today in Buffalo it's supposed to be warm and rainy. At least I can avoid the rain in a limo bus! I think the ride to Toronto is going to be a lot of fun. Surely there will be a lot of girl bonding time! As of now, it seems that all the puzzle pieces are falling in place. I'll take plenty of pictures for you all. Wish me luck!

Amber,

I hope your trip is enjoyable. I think it will be great that you are looking at experiencing new cultures and bringing that back home when you are teaching.

Hi Amber....I just discovered that you will be one of my student teachers this fall...and how exciting to be part of the IPDS trip to Germany! I look forward to meeting you later this summer and reading about your adventures in your blog. You sound ready to soak up all the adventures, and I know that this opportunity can only add to a successful and rewarding student teaching experience.
