Hello so tomorrow we are off to Munich, got a very long jounrey to a whole new country! another one to tick of the list, we are leaving here at 11am and will arrive in Munich at 6.30 and are then staying in a hostel, my very first hostel experience. We will stay there 2 nights and the next stop is a small town called Tutzing which is a 30min train jounrey and will be staying with a couple who run a theraputic horse riding school for disabled children. We have decided not to put time limits on placements and instead just go with the flow, after all we was meant to leave here about 10 days ago but wanted to extend our stay. The next few days are going to be expensive as lots of ... read more

Yo! Im just writing a little update to let you know we are still alive! We've got quite far since the last post so im not going to waffle about everywhere we have been, just a short bit about each place. After brugge we went to Anterwerp, got moved on by the police after parking on the side of the road to a car park about 150m behind us we missed! Anterwerp was an interesting place but we were soon put off after someone tried to open the van door just before we went to sleep. After this we headed in the direcetion of Amsterdam, stopping at a couple small towns on the way which were very dutch (Flat and windmills everywhere) Once we got to Amsterdam we found my aunties house where we were staying ... read more

Hello, today my class went to a hauge zoo or "animal garden" as the austrians like to say. i saw many animals that i had never seen before like tigers, lions, pandas, penguins, white wolves, monkeys, they even had a rat room! aww i miss our rats we used to have at home! "hey mom can we get some new rats!?" after that me Babsi and her friend Lilio (a guy) went to a cafe house which is like a gourmet coffee house with mirrors on the walls, chandeliers, and red velvet seats. we all got a hot chocolate with whip. they were really big and more bitter and thick than the hot chocolate in America, the whipcream was not as sweet and they shure do pile it on there was so much! there was also ... read more
