I had a long and tiring flight to Germany today. We started at 4:00 pm on Thursday in Durango. We got to Denver at 7:00 and left at 8. The overnight flight took about eight hours, but because of the time difference between here and Europe, we didn't get there until about noon London time. When we came down we saw 4 soccer stadiums! I think I saw Stamford Bridge (Chelsea's home stadium). We stayed in the London airport for about 3 hours, then got on our flight to Munich.
Our flight to Munich was pretty boring until my mom explained Sietzen and Dutzen to me. Sietzen and Dutzen are two different ways to address people. Sietzen is like using 'thou' instead of you. You're supposed to use this when addressing your teachers and adults. Dutzen is like 'you'. Saying this is offending to adults but not to children. I'm going to have to get used to saying "Canst thou please help me with this problem".
