Luther

This morning I went to the Petersburgh Citadel. It had a nice view of Erfurt from the top. Apparently Erfurt used to have around 90 churches but only around 20 remain. The two main ones are having work done on them so I wasn't able to enter. I went to the Augustinian cloister though, where Martin Luther used to study. Went into the church and wrote some postcards while listening to the organ being played. There was a prayer board near the entrance where people wrote their prayers. Most of them were in German, so I added an English one and I lit a tealight candle too. I felt very constructive.

I wanted to go on the underground citadel tour, where they give you a flaming torch and guide you around the underground part of the citadel but I had a headache and I suspected it would be in German anyway. It rains every afternoon, or it has since I arrived. The humidity gives me headaches that paracetamol has no effect on.

My dad thinks photos with no people in them are really boring, so I bought myself a mascot and he´s going to pose for me while I take photos. His name is Luther and he´s a small black sheep. Actually he doesn´t sit very well, except when doing the splits. I tried to make him sit in the shop and the shop assistants kept giving me funny looks.
