Over a thousand years of German Emperors at the City Hall

Today, we met as a group to go downtown to the City Hall (The Roemer), where they flew the American flag just for us.  Pretty cool. the weather is not as dismal as it seems in this picture.

It was nice to be together as a group.  For me to see everyone healthy and well taken care of, and for the kids to hear rapid English with their friends, and compare the wildly varying experiences that homestays bring.


We had a great tour guide who told us interesting stories spanning the lives of those from the 8th century to the 18th century.  When I talked to the adult Germans afterward, they had learned new things, too.  Definitely my favorite Roemer experience.

The question here is:  who is the Emperor and who is the traveler?
