Thursday: went for a run with Kristin, helped set up the gym for graduation reception, ate lunch, showed Kristin the nearest castle ruin, ate at the EisCafe, attended the High School Awards ceremony.

Kristin was really excited to find a cereal that said 'Knusper' - very similar to Knosp!

Kristin enjoyed the gnomes and roses all around the town of Kandern. Almost like a fairy tale....
