Nicole speaks German with an Amish man!

In August I visited friends in Ohio and their area is also Amish country.
We visited Behalt, an Amish & Mennonite Heritage Center, and I got to speak German with an Amish man.
I got to speak German with an Amish man!!!
I also learned that:
- most people have no clue about the Amish and Mennonite people.
- most of what we (think we) know about the Amish and Mennonite is incorrect.
- the Amish speak no Dutch!
- they're also not from Pennsylvania.
- they don't all speak Pfälzisch. Really!
It did my heart and soul a lot of good to speak German with a native speaker again.
I hope you enjoy hearing about it.

behalten: to keep, to preserve, to maintain
Here for the Right Reason--err, I mean Riesling
