Trip to Trier (the lazy version)

We went to Trier, Germany last Saturday. Our group consisted of Andy, Justin, Taylor, Emily, Holly, and myself.

.....but I'm feeling real blogged out at the moment so I'm gonna use a supplement and just share Holly's blog with you, which is basically the same thing that I would say, because we were with each other all day lol

Holly's Blog about Trier, Germany

Although there is one thing that I would like to share with you guys that definitely holds a level of hilarity. A couple of us were running late to the train the morning we were going to Trier. They pointed out a shortcut to get to the train station. Ok cool.

Now we ran up one side but then we had to run back down the other side. Imagine you're at the top of this image and you're having to run down it.

Not safe......

Well we're hurrying, we're hurrying, and I think to myself how funny it would be if I fell since we're in such a rush. HAH! No sooner had I finished my thought than the tip of my shoe caught the upturned edge of a loose cobblestone and with my full moving momentum I fell hard on my left shine. I assume this must have looked quite comical from some other perspective, but from mine all I knew was that I was suddenly in exquisite pain all along my leg. But there was no rest for the weary! We made it to the station and on the train I checked out my leg already incredibly swollen from the fall. It was a nice hard lump on the top of my shine. 

We walked around Trier all day and I put up with it to the best of my abilities. To my siblings if they're reading this, I would say that I had a bit of metalcrafting. Soon though I felt myself getting irritated. When we stopped at Karl Marx's house I was quite tired and just ready to get off my leg.

As soon as we got home I checked what the damage was.....

**IF YOU GET QUEASY DON'T SCROLL DOWN**

It's gonna be quite a beauty by the time it goes green I'm sure. I was and wasn't surprised by the sheer size of this. I knew that it was going to a gorgeous display of purples just because of what I was feeling earlier that day. 

Other than that lil fall it was a good day :) Trier was beautiful and we got to see a lot of beautiful things.
