Hey it's Alison and Lauren here,

Today we went to schloss Hundisbug, only 20mins in the car from our sister school allertal in the town Eisleben. It was beautiful, and old castle that had been restored, over the past couple of years. It was destroied partually by the russians after ww2 as they didn't want to have a place for the rich. Everyone had to be even. The castle had beautiful gardens like those seen in Jane austins novels. It was magical.

We then went to an old tile making place, which was buildt there as the area had plently of clay there. It was founded in 1760, well around that time and was making tiles, till 1990 when it became a historical building, where we went and saw how they used to make bricks with the machine. These days there is only a few tiles made a year and they are all made by hand.

 We have just renamed Mr Wade the Wadernader, and Rachel must learn to shut up. We call alice Fannypack, as that is wat she calls bumbags. Very funny.

We are meeting lots of new people. I (alison) like to say crazy words in german to them and they are teaching me crazy stuff. Lauren's german is better then most of ours well excpet the boys there just to good.

We can home in the afternoon, by car and Mr Craft a german teacher who the wadernader is staying with took us home, well almost. We were ment to go to Betti's hous, that Lauren, Rachi and I but he took us to Christines instead. Half of the time when we are in cars we get lost. Its really quiet amusing, we have a better idea of the area then the actual germans.

When we eventually got home we went to the supermarket to buy food,thatsd us girls and i'd just like to say that all the lolloies here are really cheap even when you put it back into aussie dollars. We went crazy after that jumping on the trampolin, playing soccer, basketball and with the hausteir, pets.

WE are having the best time, I don't want to go home, the people are much nice here, well some in the cities they are really mean. I only wat to go home for the food and my family. We are all missing our families and we can#t wait to see you. Not long now, unfortunatly.

 Well we better go miss u all
