a night on the town, dusseldorf style!


When I finally arrived to Dusseldorf around 10:30 pm, I was greeted at the station by quite the welcome party!!! Celia and Toby were there as well as another Georgia friend Mary Elyse, who was leaving to go to Italy the next morning to be an au pair...and they brought 4 mini bottles of champagne for a "prost" upon arrival!!! It was so great to see my best friend, we hadn't gotten to hang out since October and we have been missing each other so much since she moved to Germany with her husband Toby in January.

After a week in the Paris office I was in desperate need for some cocktails, gossip, and new terraine. We walked the strip of Dusseldorf's old town, the cobblestone streets were full of restaurants, bars, breweries, and soccer fans! We had such a great time wandering around and sampling the local flavors. There was so much to gossip about and catch up on...so many things to Prost! I enjoyed the "local flavors" so much that the the night was ended with fried fish sandwiches for the walk home.
