About this Episode
Today we're going to talk about Leipzig, Germany and Wroclaw, Poland and continue our student European trip. We decided to take a day trip and go to Leipzig, Germany, which was still in the eastern sector communists were still there. As we got into Leipzig, the cities on the eastern sector at this time, were very gray. They weren't lovely, beautiful, blossoming crazy cities. I mean they were very kind of drab and gray. Of course, being that it was in the spring, didn't help out any that there weren't any flowers blooming and the trees were bare. It made the city just a little bit more gloom and kind of overcast.
