This week was the first colder week of the year. The temperature ranged from the 20s to the 30s. We got a little bit of snow, but it was mainly mixed with rain, so it wasn't very pretty and also didn't stick.
The only animals I usually see in the city are dogs and birds. Dogs in Germany are normally extremely well trained, so much so that people don't always walk them on a leash. I also see LOTS of pigeons in the city. They are everywhere, and I find them really annoying!
I went to the Saarschleife this weekend with my roommate. It's a part of the river where it bends like a horseshoe. You can hike trails all around, and in the summer, there's a ferry that takes you around the horseshoe bend.
