I have spent the last couple of days in Dresden, a nice city in Germany. The town is famous for being completely bombed during the Second World War, but despite that it has managed to still have some beautiful old buildings. I spent an afternoon wandering around the town. Yesterday me and four other Australians (it is a little annoying how many Australians are on Busabout it makes it a little frustrating). We rode along the river to a big lake to go swimming. It was really nice as yesterday was quite hot. But we had to hurry back as the storm clouds came in. We got caught in the storm but played Street Ball (you just kick the ball as hard as you can) in a tunnel..... it was fun.
We then rode around the city some more.
I am reading the diaries of Anne Frank at the moment which is really interesting. I love the way through all of it she is still just a teenager. She feels that everyone picks on her and she doesn't get along with her mother.
Books.... that reminds me of going to the book burning square in Berlin where all the books where burnt during the Second World War (as suggested by the name). There is a monument there which is just empty shelves for all the books that were burnt..... so many books missing.
I hope you are all well.
love cush.
