After
having one of the best nights together in Berlin, we all woke up the
following morning very early in order to start our journey back home. While
nothing too exciting happened during our flight or in the airport, the
time was spent reliving the best moments of the trip, which made it so
much more enjoyable!
Berlin
is such a fun, exciting, and unique city, which makes it difficult for
one to not have a great time. It is also filled with such an important
and intriguing history that is easy to see while simply walking through
the streets. Berlin
was an excellent choice for this trip because the information that we
learned at the numerous museums, monuments, and sites we visited
throughout our stay in Germany complemented what we have learned in our
various history classes at WJU.
During
our flight home, we spent our time recalling stories from the trip.
These stories made it clear that we all learned so much about the long
history of the city while also having a great time filled with
excitement and laughter. We
joked about our tour guide from the Olympic Stadium, discussed our
favorite food from the city as well as our favorite meals, laughed about
Dr. Liedel being run over by a bicycle, and, of course, spent time
playing the official game of the trip: charades. While reminiscing made
leaving even more difficult, it made us realize how much fun we had and
how many memories we created!
During
the trip, we all grew closer and became friends with people we didn’t
know well before. It was exciting to meet and learn about one another
throughout the week and share some great moments together. As students,
we all learned innumerable things about Berlin's unique history as well
as those of other city's such as Potsdam and Dresden. Overall, the trip
was an amazing and rewarding experience that we are all thankful to have
had!
