... The guidebook said that we would have to be very determined and, I knew, Elaine at least was extremely determined to get there. Bergen Belson is the place where Anne Frank's life ends. But one thing at a time. We had, the day before, gone to the place Anne and her family were first sent once they had been captured: Westerbork Transit Camp. The Westerbork Camp is a bit northeast of the tiny town of Westerbork itself. We've been really lucky about ...

... Am nächsten Tag gings nach einem super Frühstück mit Tischtennis und einem tollen Crocket Spiel sportlich los. Am Nachmittag sind wir dann zur Weser gefahren und haben Lenkdrachen steigen lassen. Das hat wirklich sehr viel Spaß gemacht! Am Abend gab es dann nach einer netten Kniffelparty noch ein kleines Highlight: Wir haben ein Flammea, das ist ein kleiner Hei ...

... hatte doch ziemlich Angst! Naja, Spaß hatte ich auch (Siehe Bild). Es gibt viele tolle Attraktionen unter anderem auch richtig gute Tiershows mit Tieren, die sich merklich wohlfühlen. Es war ein toller Tag, aber Caro als "Freizeitparkexpertin" war nicht ganz von dem Heidepark überzeugt :-)

In Celle besuchen wir heute Theo, Felix, Ilka und Karsten. Wir macheten einen Ausflug in die schöne historische Innenstadt von Celle. Hier seht ein schönes Fachwerkhaus neben dem anderen. Sie sind meistens bunt bemalt und tragen Weisheiten auf der Fasade. Der Turm der Kirche den wir besteigen wollen hatte leider geschlossen, als kleinen Trost haben wir alle ein Eis bekommen ...

Here we stayed for a few days to rest at a family campground where everyone seemed surprised that we came such a long way from Canada and that my last name has a german meaning. There was a pond (lake-ish water) with ducks and I went swimming once. We played a lot of chess and some guitar, etc. When the the local shops (three bakeries ...

The Hurricane festival started on fri 22.6 and ended on sun 24.6 We arrived a day before the festival. The weather was quite rainy but the festival was nicely orginized and we saw som great bands, during theese tre days. Some of my friends also arrived on friday and joined in on the fun :) the Pix speak for them selves...

... Hamburg. Upon arrival, Oliver's dad's friend (tour guide) met us with a welcome sign and a HUGE bus - like a bus for 30 people except there were only 12 of us... :) Plenty of room! Again, the weather was awful - COLD, rainy, and miserable, but being in the bus really helped. Our first stop was a little toilet place - apparently there used to be toilet stops around the BinnenAlster Lake, but no one was taking care of them, so the government closed them down ...

... adults off at a swanky hotel and we (Oliver, Erin, Kajal, Brett, Anthony, and I) were off to the cheaper place (which was pretty nice too)! We checked in and then decided to walk around in the rain, directly to a pub, to enjoy our first beer in Lueneberg. It was a bank holiday, so all the shops were closed - all we could do was window shop. There was one crazy store - the "US Store" where the ...

I landed in Hamburg. I thought I was going to be on my own getting to Lueneburg, but Soeren met me outside the gate. Then we met up with Tyler and took the train to Lueneburg. Ingrid met me at the train station in Lüneburg. She showed me around town and took me to their ...
