First of all, in English please! -

Friday, September 21st: 47 students blocked the entrance of our school, waiting for their coach to Bremerhaven. After the four-hour-drive, we finally arrived. Weather: rainy and windy. Mood: bored.

Shortly after the arrival, we moved into our rooms. Mood: impressed and surprised!

And that was the moment our program started. On our first day we went to the German Immigration Center (Auswandererhaus). Here we could follow our own ancestors and their stories about moving to the USA or other countries. Mood: fascinated and moved.

After that we had dinner at our hostel. Mood: happy and satisfied.

After a long night with the opportunity of going to an Irish Pub, we checked out of our hostel. Weather: still windy, but without rain. Mood: sleepy but excited about the next event.

After we had made the inescapable group photo, we moved on to the “Klimahaus”. There we got to experience different climate zones. Weather: changed every ten minutes. Mood: interested and excited.

After this experience we finally made it on our way back home. Back in Lipperbruch, we all thought of this trip as a great experience and a funny weekend.
