Week 3- Rita in Germany

I was really happy when I came home Wednesday 2 weeks ago, Because I found a package on my desk - and guess who was inside it? - Yuusuke :3




The day after he arrived I took him around my little town.
There is not much to see there, But I thought I'd take a picture of Yuusuke in front of the mine called "Erin"


You can see those old mines all around west Germany, where I live.
Most of them are not used anymore, they just stand around to remember the people of the past ^^
It's called Erin because a person from Eire cam here in 1858 and thought It'd be nice to call it Erin. Erin is the latinized word for Eire~

Right behind that tower is a really small park, where usually teenagers hang out.. But the weather was bad, so I was only one there. I took Yuusuke on one of the Hill there, from where you can see the historic city of Castrop-Rauxel



[sorry its a little dark~]

on Friday I took Yuusuke to Dortmund~
Dortmund is the next biggest city here, and it's famous, first, for it's soccer team, BVB Borussia Dortmund, and for it's beer, "Dortmunder Union Bier". You can't buy it anymore, because the brewery closed already yeeeears ago, but the building of the Brewery, the "Dortmunder U" is still standing [well, it's only a huge building with an U[because of Union Beer^^] on it, but it's the landmark of Dortmund, so I took a picture of Yuusuke with the U :3


On Saturday, I wanted to go to Cologne with him, to visit the famous Dome, but I got sick, so I couldn't go there >.<

But I took him to Duesseldorf on Monday. Duesseldorf is the city with the 3rd biggest population of Japanese in Europe. It has many shops in which you can buy Magazines, such as SHOXX and KERA, or CD's [I bought my copy of TOKYO MUZiCAL HOTEL there^^] there are Sushi restaurants, Japanese bakeries, and so on~
There's also a Japanese Temple~ [that's closed on Mondays >.<]
and a Japanese garden~ That's where I took Yuusuke ;D




And theeeeen~ on Yuusuke's last day in germany~
I took him to the circus ^O^
[But I wasn't allowed to take pictures during the show, but anyway, Yuusuke in the Circus:




and the day after that, I sent Yuusuke on to 光ちゃӛ ♥
