One of the things I've noticed is that there are a ton of parks and open areas around Aachen. The first day Arne, Miriam, and I went to a park near a casino named Eurogress, where we slept and hung out for a few hours and did some pretty awesome people watching. Then the next day, since the weather was again perfect, Arne took me with him to meet up with some friends and go slacklining. (In case anyone doesn't know, a slackline is essentially a tightrope strung between two trees that people try to walk on.) The park we went to was awesome, complete with a lake and swans! Though I have never been very good at slacklining, I did manage to balance for a bit and walk a few steps and even won a few times when Arne jumped on and challenged me to see who could stay on longest.
