Today we went to Flensburg, Germany. Some of us went ice skating while some of the others went swimming. It was a lot of fun. We did all the things you ought when skating with a large group. We took loads of pictures for starters, and of many

different things. We slid on our bellies on the ice, we laid down with our heads together as pictured, we made long trains, and we drank hot chocolate. (I ordered two hot chocolates in english, but then he grabbed the hot dog buns, so fortunately I stopped him before he grilled them. I didn't think the buns were to replace biscotti.) After our two and a half hours of fun and sore ankles, we popped on over to the supermarket. Whenever you are in Germany, you must buy lots of candy and pop. At least that's how it's been. It's much cheaper there, so we always stock up. I try to be careful though, because if I stock up on candy, I also will stock up in pounds. Don't want that! Over all it was a fun day. On the way home however, we witnessed an accident. The car in front of us started swerving and then started rolling. It ended upside down in the shoulder. We stopped and only one guy was there. He crawled out the window and didn't have a scratch on him. It was a miracle! So we brought him in the bus and gave him a pepsi while we waited for the cops to show up. Poor guy, 19 and just got his liscense. Now he has a totalled car. But at least he has his life! Well, that's my news for today! Cheers!
