Fridays = Work Days...well sort of

All week long, the Germans work hard but Friday is everyone's favorite day - especially sunny Fridays. Normally when I am biking home from my class on Monday and Wednesday around 1pm, there is not a lot of traffic, just some lunch traffic, but the majority of people out are moms with their young kids. However, on Fridays at 1 pm there is tons of traffic - bikes and cars. The work day here ends anytime between 1 and 3 pm on Fridays...how cool.

Yesterday was no different. I was in a couple "bike jams", if you will, not only because it was Friday but also because it was gorgeous! It rains a lot here, so when the sun comes out, everyone soaks it up. Today is also beautiful. I am headed out for a run around Maschsee (the lake in the city) with my friend Lucy. I hope there is spring weather where you are too!
