Blog Topic #8

I went with the idea that was provided about fly patterns, and seeing how next summer I am hoping to study abroad in Germany, or some other European country, I plotted out the possible flight path. I have never used Google Eath and I am unfamiliar how to use all of the tools so it is hard to see much of the map. There is over 5000 miles between Denver, Colorado and Berlin, Germany which is, undoubtably, the farthest distance I will have ever traveled. Other than Mexico, I have not been outside of the U.S. and the farthest I have gone was a visit to my cousin's place in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Whether its Berlin, Rome or another European city I hope to experience a new culture and learn more about religion while being in a place where the actual historical event occured.  How cool would it be to walk the streets of Wittenberg where Martin Luther nailed his 95 thesis to the church door or going to St. Peter's Basilica which was bought and paid for from the countless indulgence sales to ignorant Roman Catholics. All jokes aside, I hope my half summer abroad will be a wonderful enxperience and I pray to learn as much as possible during my time there.
