Germany, days 17-20: Another Week Goes By

Our return from Berlin brought more homework, as could be expected. The new professor assigns more problems, but they are generally easier problems. This is an acceptable change by me.

I continue to be annoyed at the premium on the word "Vegetarische". I have taken to drinking milk in the apartment, as it is cheaper. I have also rediscovered soy milk, which I am using as a snack drink. It runs anywhere from 90 cents to 1.80 Euro.

Instead of attending German, we had a project of researching the Hanse, or Hanseatic League, of which both Bremen and Hamburg are members. We looked forward to going to Hamburg on Friday, under the leadership and supervision of our German instructor.
