Hello,
Werder is such an awesome place everything is so beautiful and everyone is so friendly. Its been great riding my bike.. well everywhere and Jannys ice cream cafe makes for a great afterschool hangout. Anyway about todays biddings. First of all I joined my host Jurrek in his first lesson biology. After listening to his teacher talk about DNA (and understanding about a quarter, words like doppel helix etc, thank goodness they sound the same) it was off to Berlin. After a quick walk we arrived at Brandenburg gate. Our Tour guide (Madeline) found us outside Starbucks and we set off. Madeline was very entertaining and had a wealth of knowledge and passion for Berlin. She explained the history of berlin and the controversy surrounding it. we visited places such as the Reichtag ,halacaust memorial,the Fuhr bunker where hitler died ,the former luftwaffe (german airforce) headquarters this being one of the few reamaining nazi buildings, the altes (old) museum and many other places along the way . Madeline ended the tour fittingly with the story of how the Berlin Wall Fell a very enjoyable and interesting day.
... Thank you Germany

I am so pleased that the blogg and you are getting along now Harrison.
Werder sounds picture book stuff.
Your group photo's make you all look like tourists. It is great that the guide made your tour such fun and enjoyable whilst learning the history..
With all the bike riding it is a very healthy place and an ice cream wouldnt go a miss.
Take care
