Me and Marissa in front of a statue of Friedrich Bessel, the German mathematician and astronomer. I would pretend I knew who he was, but then you might ask me questions about Bessel functions...On Saturday Priya, Marissa and I did some site seeing around the old part of town. While doing so we stumbled upon a farmers market which was delightful. We bought vegetables for that night's dinner, a new cheese, a chocolate croissant, and blueberry wine.
After the market, we went to the House of the Glockenspiel, which I have been excited about ever since reading about it on the Bremen city website. The glock plays a tune three times per day.
As the glock finished it's 3pm tune, we ran into Erika and Anja, and all decided to have a snack at the cafe at the Windmill on the Wall.
After the windmill, we split up again, and Priya, Marissa, and I went back to the guesthouse to relax and make dinner. We made a Spanish omlet and bruschetta. Both were delicious.
To see what Bremen is like after dark, we went to the Schlacte, the same street with several bars and biergardens that Priya and I had visited before. We went to Bar Celona, a tapas bar and ate olives and two orders of french fries with our choice of yummy dips. Bar Celona was great, and we found the best table in the house -- right by the window with lots of fluffy pillows!
After we walked across the river to Moderne, which the lonely planet article about Bremen told us was the best night club in the city. The place was packed, the music was so fun, and we danced like the crazy gals we are.
