Saturday morning most of the guys got up to meet Pr. Hartmann-Mahmud and her son Malik at an outdoor market. It was a pretty interesting experience... fish, meats, clothes, fruits, veggies, chocolates, and various other things.
I picked up 2 crab-rolls (egg-roll with crab in it) and a shrimp salad with great sauce for about 5 Euro which I ended up eating that night - It was delicious.
Around noon we visited the Musée Rohan archeology section and researched the history of Alsace and France. Later we studied Julias Caesar and his impact on the area with Pr. Bradshaw. (Rohan has an art museum upstairs that I plan on going back to visit, I buzzed through it and noticed some paintings I have studied at Centre in my humanities classes freshman year.
Later in the afternoon we did a boatride around Strasbourg and out to the European Institutions. Honestly it was pretty lame... just sight seeing stuff, nothing too special.
Saturday night was a blast... we played some games of poker in the room, had some drinks and went out to Zanzibar where we met Ben, a bartender who knew Mitch - a friend of mine from Centre and had a few shots on the house. Thanks Mitch!
