Halloween in Germany

Last week-end I went to Heidelberg (Germany) with my mother and grandmother to see my brother Jofre, who is studying there for one year. We flight to Baden-Baden, the nearest airport from Heidelberg, from Girona.

At twelve in the morning we had already arrived in Heidelberg. So, we had to look for somewhere to have lunch and to wait for Jofre. It was while we were eating when my mother, who was anxious to see “her good son”, saw him coming by a monocycle, which made us laugh a lot!

After we had had lunch, Jofre helped us to find the hotel which was situated in the old part of the city and where the sights were wonderful: the windows of the room were in front of the Old Bridge over river Neckar. That afternoon, after we had left the bags in the hotel, we went sightseeing the Heidelberg Castle, which was on a hill, and some beautiful squares from there, too. Later, as my grandmother was too tired to walk to any place to have dinner, we spent the evening in the hotel, where we had dinner, and Jofre returned to his student residence.

The next day, we had to go to the Catholic Church. It was the 31st of October! I haven’t said that my grandmother is a hard believer… So, we all went to the church, where we met Jofre again, but it wasn’t as bored as we thought, it was nice to see lots of young people, instead of old people, like in Catalunya, singing together every church song that they had to.

Later, as it was a sunny and warm day, we decided to go walking, with the bags, to my brother’s residence in order to see where he was living at the moment. During the walk, near the river Neckar, we saw many geese and ducks, and trees in the autumn colours. It was definitely fantastic!


Finally, we arrive to the residence, although later, we had to come back to the airport again. There, in the airport, my brother taught me how to ride his monocycle, it was really funny!

Anyway, we had to say goodbye to Jofre and came back to Girona.

To finish I would like to say I spent a great time with my loved brother.
