First Day

Start of my journey- Everything new

My journey started on 6th May. I travelled by Eurostar to Bruxelles and from there straight to Loughborough. We came to Bruxelles and it was very busy there. Many people were running in different directions.
My parents and me had enough time to spend some at a Häagen Dazs Café-quite expensive!
But after a coffee americano/ cappuccino and some delicious Häagen Dazs ice-cream(banana/caramel i had to say "Goodbye". It was a sad situation and me and my mother cried (only a little bit!) before I was totally on my own.
I managed the tour to London St. Pancras and from threre I had only 30 minutes to catch the East Midlands train to Loughborough. There were some trouble so I arrived 25 minutes later than I planned. But everything turned out fine. Judith catched me up and we drove home to East Leake. A little village with a supermarket, a pub, a butcher, some cafés, a vet, more churches and so on and so forth.
She cooked me a perfect meal with a dessert and we talked for a while. After that she invited her neighbours and we played "Scrabble". It was really difficult for me to find some good word(which bring us good points) but we managed it and won!!
A long day went to its end.. "Good night, sleep well".

Loch Earn- Camping for Sailing

Our weekend at Loch Earn   Loch Earn Now I am already 1 month away from home. How the time rushes! I am happy to make all these experiences. We went camping to "Loch Earn" which is a lake. In Scotland one calls a lake a "loch". The English people have difficulties to pronunce that word, but for Scotish people and German it is easy. The kids sailed and therefore we camped all together there. I must admit: This was my first real camping experience. Since then I only camped at festivals like "Rock am Ring". The proper camping is more luxurious than our party-camping. I had a thick, comfy blowing-up matress and also a cushion(!). We had warm showers with seperate cabins and we had enough electricity. That was really good. My host family are camping-experts so they bought everything we need for cooking, drinking, etc. At our first day it was so windy. We managed to build our tents up and as soon as we were inside it started to rain! What a luck! The ...

Daytrip to the best city in the whole wide world-LONDON

London-my favourite city London (view from the Waterloobridge)   Tate Britain-Hall We went off to London at 9o'clock in the morning. We were from Ashtead to London in about 30 minutes. What a pleasure! We met Jeanette in Vauxhall and went straight to the Tate Britain. They both know a lot about British art and they presented me two famous artists. 1. William Turner and 2. Henry Moore. Moore is famous for his massive sculptures and William Turner painted big, bright landscapes. I liked the "Beach" paintings from Turner the most! He had a very good sense for drawing the sky with its various shades of light. We drove by boat to "Embankment" and there we went into the Southwark Cathedral. The Cathedral involved many different pieces of art and also different kind of alters. I liked it a lot. The churches are more open for exhibitions here. We enjoyed the sun outside in a café. We had chosen the best day to travel to London! It was 20 degree and the su...

Edinburgh and Glasgow

I am finally back in England. My last days in Scotland were so great! I stayed with a good friend of mine in Edinburgh. We stayed there for 2 days, then went to Glasgow for two other days. We stayed the last night in Edinburgh again and afterwards I met J. to drive back to England by car. Edinburgh Edinburg is the capital city of Scotland and it was so beautiful there. It was really "posh" and Edinburgh is a richer town than for example Aberdeen. It has a lot of history and you can do everything by foot. The city consists of the "Old Town" and the "New Town". I arrived on Friday and stayed for one night in Dalkeith and that was only 30 minutes far away from the city centre. I drove by bus and stayed in a beautiful posh house. On Saturday the funny part started. I met Jacky in the city centre and we checked in in the hostel. Our Hostel was called "Brodies" and it was situated on the High Street in the Old Town. It was really good. We wen...
