Dresden

We spent this weekend in Dresden. We took a three hour drive on Saturday morning and made it there shortly after noon. We spent the rest of the day on Saturday walking around the city looking at all of the old buildings. It was prefect weather as we were only in sweatshirts. We were able to ride the tram to get us to different places when walking was too far. Several of the buildings we saw were like what we saw in Prague. It's amazing to think that so many of these places are older than the United States! Our country is so young! On Sunday morning we woke up and headed out early. We spent the day looking through different museums. We went into a knight museum, paintings, and a scuplture museum. We had a hard time understanding all of the paintings. Jay thought he could do just as well as many of the artists! It was neat to see the different knight uniforms and also all of their swords. After we were done with the museums, we looked around the town a little bit more before finally heading home.
