Today, the residents in buildings 1 and 2 made the most of the lovely weather by going on a bus ride around town. The tour saw the first cruise ship of the season anchored out in the bay, a tender boat, several murals, ice storm damage, checked out the dam and a drive through downtown. Lots of memories were shared amoung the ladies. In the meantime, building 3 residents have the whole world in their hands. They painted the earth with balloons. They also had visitors stop by outside.

Our exploration of German culture took place today, with Charlotte sharing her experiences growing up in Germany and bringing books showing us her hometown. Norma brought down mugs from Germany for us to look at. We talked about about everything from size comparison to the US to traditional German cuisine, and intriguing fun facts followed by tasting of Eiskaffee and a round of Eisstockschiessen.
