Week-end in Germany

Last Friday we packed our little bags and went to visit Steffi with Marvin, Diana, Keiko and Virginie. She lives a few hours from Strasbourg, near Ulm. There was a lot of snow in Germany, which is a rare sight for someone who’s living in Strasbourg. The first thing we did after getting there was eat a lot (not that anyone was hungry). Then we played Rummy that we took with us extra for Steffi. She loves that game, I don’t know why. The rest of the evening we spent telling her all the news of Lucie Berger.
The next day after breakfast we all got into ridiculous (but warm) skiing outfits, grabbed some sledges and went to enjoy the snow. After a while of sliding down the mountain and climbing back up, gasping for breath we lost the childish spirit and headed back for some home-made cake. The rest of the day we spent playing games; learning choreography for the animators’ dance at the school’s final party; eating, looking at photos and discussing Anna.
The next morning we had a little festive brunch, after that a short sightseeing in Ulm (the town with the tallest church, the most inclined house and the place where Einstein was born). Finally, even after a nice relaxing weekend like that I was still glad to get back to our ugly-prisonny, but nevertheless sweet “home” :)
It’s good to be in Strasbourg!
