Once again we changed homes again. This time our home was near Hof and I was staying with Deanea at this home. We each had our own room upstairs.

The weird thing is, we never quite caught the names of the people we were staying with. They didn’t seem to speak a whole lot of English, they had never been to the United States, and we pretty much had nothing in common with them. Needless to say, it was a bit awkward spending time with them. Anyway, the day started off with a tour of Lamilux, which is a factory that makes plastic for caravans and skylights.

It wasn’t exactly the most interesting tour we had been on. Noodle alert! Following that tour we went to Rehau and met the mayor, had a tour of the museum at the rathaus and then went to lunch. I order a zwibelkuchen, but it was much more of an onion quiche than an onion tarte. Ryan ended up eating mine. Luckily ordered some really good potato soup too. After lunch we went to the porcelain museum for Rosenthal.

It was a pretty good tour. After that we had free time at an outlet mall, or more like a warehouse. It was pretty random and basically a waste of time. Dinner was another let down. It was a pre-ordered spread of weird meats including raw ground beef with a raw egg over it.

I ate some bread and a little cheese and a piece of ham. Sigh.
