after my last post we went out and walked around the port city also known here as hafencity. it was pretty cool because the river was there and ran through where the traders would sell and trade their wares. we visited a museum that showed the spices and where they come from and let you sniff smell and touch the herbs and spices that they showed. it was neat. we walked around alot today and we went on this tower that was seriously way too tall to be safe i think and got a look at the city from a different vantage point. i was the last one up and the slowest one coming down. im a chicken when it comes to the heights thing. but i did it because i have to try everything. next we proceeded to eat lunch, which was a pizza type thing that came in a small half box. it was your own personal pizza all ready made. wile eating and walking we headed toward the subway and took a train to the elba river and took a ferry type boat that showed us many things like the shipping industry and great views of the old churches. then we went to a chinese type place where we bought chicken and a big box of cooked almost pad thai noodles which were delicious. tonight we dont really have plans to go out so we might just watch a movie or go to bed because we barely got 5 hours of sleep. good night!
