Berlin, The Cezeck Republic, Austria, and South Germany!

Hallo Again Everyone,

Hope your Summer is going well. I just got back to Stendal yesturday from a week of vaction to The Cezeck Republic, Austria, and Southern Germany. I had a Great time! Sorry I could not write but we didn't have any internet where we were.

I had a Great time on Vacation. I got to see many differant things. We went to the Cezck Republic on Saturday. It is a Much poorer country than America and Germany and you can really sense that! It has some Beuatiful Buildings though. It is very Middle Eastern!

Then that night we went to Andrea's Sister's house and stayed there fopr Two (2) nights. Her sister took us to Salzburge , Austria on Sunday. I Really liked Austria. Saltzburge is the Birth town of Motzart and where he Grew-Up. We got to see the outside of his Birth Home. That was cool. Salzburge is also where The Sound of Music really happend and where the Movie was filmed. We got to see some of the places where they filmed it. We got to walk in the Garden where the kids and Maria sang and Danced to " Do-A-Deer". It was sooooo cool. I really enjoyed it there in Austria.

On monday night we spent the night in a hay Hotel. It was like a Barn but where the horses would be there were bundles of Hay made into a Big Bed.It was alot of fun. It was actually very comfortable with sheets drapped over it and sleeping bags on top. I took alot of Allergy medicen and it didn't bother me that bad. Praise the Lord.

Tusday and Wednessday we spent with hartmut's Brother and his Family. On Wednessday, Andrea, Anisja, Deedy and I went to a park up in the foothills. Deedy, Anisja, and I went down into a cave. That was cool.

Thursday, yesturday, we came home. It was an 8 hour trip back but we stopped half way and had lunch and went shopping. That was fun. Then we got back into the car and rode until Andrea needed to take a little nap, so Damaris, Ansja and I ate cookies and German chocolate and walked around for 10 minutes and then we headded home. We got back to Stendal at about 6:30 last night. It was a long trip but I really enjoyed it.

When I got to my room I opend a letter my parents had sent me from all of my Friends at conference. Thanks guys. I really needed some encouragement ate exactly that time and God put your letters right there.

It was really hard for me when we got back to Stendal because everyone else was excited to be Home and I knew in my heart that I wasn't HOME yet and I Really wanted to be. I don't know when I will be really Home, In Heaven, but I will be Home in America on Autg. 4th, Lord Willing. Then I read all of those wondreful letters and I started to cry. It was the first time since I got to Stendal that I actually cried. I have come close alot though.

Now we are spending today starting to get me packed because I only have 5 days left here in Stendal. Then we leave for Nothern Germany for five (5) days and then I fly HOME. I will be , Lord willing , talking to my parents today and I will see if they can post some more pictures that I sent them.

Tonight Deedy and I , Lord Willing, are going out to eat at an Authentic German restraute. It should be a New Adventure as Andrea calls it.



I realized that I haven't wrote about my trip to Berlin. That was a Good Day.
On July 12 , Andrea, Hartmut, Deedy, and I went to Berlin. It is a Beuatiful Capital. We took the train and got to see some wonderful scenery.

We went to the World Famouse "Gate of Berlin". It stood almost exactly where the wall was. We also could see how much Eastern Germany and Western Germany were differant when the wall was up. We walked along a river, where the wall was and on one side you could see the Mondern design of the Bildings and on the other side you could see the centuries old, Beuatiful Bildings. My favorite part of Berlin Had to be the Dome Cathedral. It was so Nice. It's wonderful Gothic style acutecture took my breath away. I could have stayed there for hours! I Really enjoyed Berlin.


Well I should get going.

Thanks for all of your prayers and support.

Have a Good and Godly summer.

God Bless You and Your Family.

In Christ,

Hannah
