It's Pfingsten Day today so we have no classes. Ten days ago it was Christi Himmelfahrt, so we had no classes. I like May; school is apparently not very important this month.
Christi Himmelfahrt can be translated as the "Jesus Heaven-Travel," I'm assuming this is the Ascension. But to Germans, the important part of this day is not that Jesus, following his resurrection from death, physically floated, body and soul, from the earth, ascended into heaven to be seated at the right hand of God the Father... No. It's beer. Wheel barrels of it.
