Dresden, one year later

Dear Family, Saturday November 29th 2008
We got up absurdly early to make breakfast for everyone, and overall it went pretty well. I had to run off to the grocery store at 7 in the morning to buy 11 more dozen eggs, but other than that it was great. In the end we had two skillets of eggs leftover, but fear not, they were not wasted. We definitely gobbled them tonight after such a long day.

The second group went into the Temple, and I hung around really wanting to take a nap. I got back into my church clothes and went to my Religion class, listening to a spiel by the Temple President. It was very interesting, but I had not gotten any sleep, so I spent most of the time putting every ounce of energy I had left into staying awake.

Afterwards we all got into regular clothes and drove to Dresden. Everyone tried to sleep on the bus, and the fact that our tour guide was speaking into the microphone the entire drive there was really not appreciated. We visited the Karl Maeser monument there, and were let loose finally at 4, so it was already dark and we couldn't take any good pictures because there was no more light.

The Frauenkirche was closed for a performance, and so I didn't get to go up it again sadly. We just walked around to the different Christmas markets for a couple hours, and then drove back to Freiberg. We stayed up pretty late, and I'm going to bed.
Good night,
Anna
