We discovered our favorite ride which was this thing that went up and down over small hills in a circle super fast while blaring music. We rode that one at least ten times. Of course we did the bumper cars a bunch more too. We even tried this submarine ride which basically encloses you in a submarine and plays on a screen deep sea adventures while it tells you about them (in German, of course). Definitely not a ride for the claustrophobic.
The man at the crepes stand we went to was deaf and seemed to be reading lips for orders. Well, even though crepe is crepe and nutella is nutella in both languages, he could not figure out what I was saying. I figure the mouth moves with an accent too and reading lips in German is probably pretty different than reading lips in American. Is sign language international? Must be hard enough to read lips without people talking funny. We finally pointed and got our order across.
At nearly 11pm, they started the fireworks. They were fairly short and didn't have much enthusiasm to them. We huddled in a small crowd to watch then over the pirate ride. Then Skylar and I hopped aboard our bikes and headed for home.
