Over this past year, the Carl Schurz German-American club in Bremen organised two big\u00a0events which we were able to attend. We had the opportunity to celebrate Thanksgiving and Independence Day with the\u00a0German-American community of Bremen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The Thanksgiving dinner was on the fancier side and everyone dressed up. The meal was really good and even upon our arrival we were greeted with sugar cookies in the form of pumpkins and a glass of champagne. We\u00a0talked with some of the German guests including students who were in their senior year in high school. So if you are coming\"\"<\/a> to Bremen this coming fall and are\u00a0sad to miss Cafsgiving as well as real Thanksgiving dinner with your family, don\u00b4t worry. The Bremen program has it all figured out and you will have the chance to celebrate this special day even abroad.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The\u00a04th of July was a\u00a0casual celebration –<\/span> a dinner in the style of picnic. We all brought food with us and shared. It was potluck style, and\u00a0Molly and I brought watermelon since that is the perfect dessert for those hot summer days. We have been extremely lucky with the weather this past semester – a lot of sunny and warm days thanks to which we really started loving Bremen. Everyone was\u00a0friendly and enthusiastic, and it was nice to have one\u00a0last get together before everyone starts leaving.\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
