Münster

Jesse and I took an early train out of Amsterdam and headed to Münster to visit with my friend, Jakob, for a day. Jakob toured us all around Munster, taking us to the castle -- now the university -- which was completely leveled by a bomb during the war and rebuilt brick by brick by the students that attended it. Behind the university, there are botanical gardens and large greenhouses that contains tropical trees and bushes. Inside the greenhouses, we found projectors playing cartoon economics lessons, which we found to be completely wack, but later it was revealed to us that it was part of an art display. Jakob then brought us to his flat to watch a Germany vs Netherlands fütbol match with a bunch of Jakob's friends all squished into his tiny flat's kitchen. Unfortunately, the score at the end was 0-0, but ah well. Afterwards, we got all dressed up and went out to Night of the Profs; a night on which a few professors from the university act as DJs at 5 clubs and everybody buys tickets and gets to dance and have a good time. So we danced until 5 am and then headed back to Jakob's flat in the frosty air. After a few hours of sleep, Jesse and I packed up our bag and caught our train to Berlin. [Unfortunately, we forgot our camera when we went out around Munster and to Night of the Profs, and so we only have a few pictures from Night of the Profs courtesy of Jakob and his friend.]
