Hey everyone!
Benji and I have been back in Germany for a few weeks now, after a very exciting two week Easter vacation! First we were in The Hague, Netherlands for an ice show. We spent the weekend there and our friend Jill Bakker showed us around the beautiful historic city. We hope to add photos and a video soon. We then spent one week in Milan, Italy for our choreography with Paola Mezzadri. We really enjoyed our time with her on the ice, she is a wonderful coach. We also had a lot of fun in the great city of Milan and with our close friend, Matteo Zanni. We will be adding our very many photos and a very funny homemade video of our time there.

We spent the rest of our vacation in Dortmund, Germany with Benji's family, which included a one day family trip to the beach at (again) The Hague, Netherlands and an outlet shopping mall in Belgium. We had a lot of fun, but were back to real training once we were in Berlin. I must say, we did have a lot of fun in some great new cities during the vacation, but I was ecstatic to be back in Berlin when we came home! I love Berlin, it is my favorite city in the world! Keep checking the website for new updates with photos and videos...we will update again soon when we have more interesting news for you! Until then, Benji and I are training very hard for our last year of Junior competition, studying very hard (me for a certificate in German and my US high school diploma and Benji for his Abitur) and hoping for the best! Best wishes to you all, thanks for taking the time to visit our site, come back soon!
