Trip to Germany by Spanish students

Trip to Wernigerode, Germany


On Monday, we got up at 4.30 in the morning to get our flight. In the airport, I met my friends Laura and Marina and the two teachers who came with us, Conchita and Manuel.
We arrived at Wernigerode about 20.00. Our host families were waiting for us at the train station. Then, we went to our houses, it was a really tirying day!

On Tuesday, we had to wake up early again and went by bus to Volswagen's factory in Wolfsburg and, after, to the Phaeno science museum. This evening, my host, Karo, and her best friend, Nina, took me around their village, Silstedt. They explained me lots of things about that place.

Wednesday, we went to our partner school; we had poetry workshop! Marina, Laura and I wrote an acrostic. After that, we took a look around the school and we had lunch. In the afternoon we made a rally in Wernigerode with our hosts. In the evening, we went to the bowling!!!!!! At night, all spanish students, our hosts and two germans more met in Silstedt, it was very funny only because we were together.

Thursday, last day, we took an old lovely train to the Broken, a mountain. We walked eight kilometres until the top of the mountain. It wasn't a very pleasant way because it was cold, windy and also, it was raining!! Then, we had lunch, took another train to go back to Wernigerode and we went to our hauses. This night, all students from every country went to a café and had a "goodbye party".

On Friday, we had to say goodbye, we'll miss everybody. We took a train in Wernigerode to Hannover, in one place it was even snowing!!!!! And at night, we were in Vigo; we were tired, but happy. It was one of the shortest and greatest weeks of my life. Now, we chat by msn with the other boys and girls :) I'd like to repeat soon!
