Alles Gute zum Geburtstag!

For my birthday, my lovely host frau surprised me at the breakfast table with some beautiful flowers, a hand-painted card (she is a great artist! mainly water color paintings), and chili-chocolate! yum!

My culture class went out for a "fieldtrip" to the beloved Pinocchio's Ice Cream Cafe, and I was treated to a Tolberone Becher...a mountain of ice cream and Tolberone pieces!

For dinner some friends and I went to an awesome Italian place, where we got great pizza, free olive appetizers, free tiramasu, and free shots for my birthday!

Following the 21st birthday tradition, we went out after dinner to a bar. I got Mohren, which is the local specialty. We finished our drinks and Felicia and I walked back to the house and studied! :)
Overall, it was a great birthday day. When I ran into my host frau back at home, she (as is tradition) shook my hand, said "alles gute zum geburtstag" and kissed my cheeks in that European style. I felt so special all day. I especially like the e-card daddy sent me! Thanks to all for the birthday wishes! I am excited to get home and get my birthday gift from Adam yet. :)
