Our trip to Germany
Our trip to Germany was the best trip of my life.
On Monday, at 6.00 AM we started the travel. During the travel there were more boring moments but also some funny ones. When we arrived,
I was excited because it was a new experience for me. My host family and I went home, it was a bed-and-breakfast and my host family was the owner.
In the night after dinner, we went out but we were separated from the Germans because we didn’t know each other. The next day, we went to school.
It was big and amazing with a lot of laboratories and a beautiful sport centre. For lunch we ate pizza at school and later we went to the castle of Veitshochheim.
For me it was a little bit boring but that’s okey. I didn’t come home for dinner that day but I don’t know why. At 10:00 pm we went home.
On Wednesday we visited Nurnberg to see Hitler’s buildings and in particular the so called Reichsparteigelände.
Later we went to the town centre and we ate at McDonald’s.
Later we came back home and after dinner, we went out. The next day we spent the morning at school and worked at our project about bees and later we went to the bowling. It was my favourite activity.
I had never played bowling before and it was really funny. The next day we worked at our project at school and later we saw the centre of the European union, it is located in a field at 2km from Veitshoechheim.
On the way back we played together in a playground. At night there was a party at school to greet us. The last day was my favourite one because we spent a lot of time with our German friends.
Würzburg is a really pretty town. At night we went out and we cried together because we were really sad for our departure on the next day.
It was my favourite night in Germany.
In the morning we cried too because we didn’t want to come back home. We were and we are right now like brothers.
