After finishing up at the estate, we took the train to downtown Dusseldorf and wandered around the old town. Giselle and I talked a lot about her family (she is happy where she is), her travels and difficulties getting a new situation, and what she plans to do. She has to take classes, per the contract, but hasn't started yet. She is given a monthly transportation pass which is good for about a 50 mile radius. She can get to Essen, Dusseldorf, Duisberg, Krefeld, and many other places around the area. Sylvia encouraged her to get out and meet other German young people. Also to see some of the local sites. She also encouraged Giselle to get of the computer more often and be more present "locally".
We ended up at the river again.
OOPS, I need to figure out how to rotate pictures, or I need to rotate them before uploading.... Oh well, I am tired and will deal with it later.
