Karlsruhe, Germany - 13th October 2012

Hello mum,
the last days of host mum had a lot to do, so we have taken much.
Host mum and her friend are doing the fishing license. Today was practice course on the lake. After the course was over, we went for a walk by the lake. Today was a beautiful, sunny day.
Above all it looks amazing how color the leaves.
Then we drove back home.
Tonight we will have a party. Pettersson will celebrate his farewell party! Then I slip into my jacket and travel further.
Greetings
Djali

Hello mum,
Last night we celebrated our farewell. Pettersson also travels further.
We drank, ate, listened to music and looked at pictures of us. We have seen quite a lot here at zauberaeffle.
It was really a very nice time!
On the one hand we are sad that we go, on the other hand we are looking forward to what lies ahead.
We have been decorated our envelopes. Before we slipped into the envelopes, we all hugged tight.
Maybe we'll meet again!
Bär Schär and MadBird were very sad, because we go.
I hope I do not have too long to be in my dark jacket.
Lots of love
Djali

Hi Mom,
today I arrived at my new host. I was happy to get out of my envelope. The other TVs gave me a warm welcome and invited me to come with them, as they were about to leave home for a trip.
So we all spent the afternoon together at the "Schwenninger Moos" which is a
nature conservation area.
At the "Schwenninger Moos" the river Neckar is born.
It's a beautiful landscape with some seldom plants and animals. As it shall recover to its former habitant
poeple don't interfer. When a plant is rotten or have gone stale, it will not be removed. It will stay there
and become a part in the circle of life.
I like those tiny little flowers. I asked my host whether she know what kind of bush this is, but she
doesn't know either.
Every now and then there are plates telling interesting facts, like this one.
See all the water? Allthough the water is brown it's a healthy enviroment.
Here are some fish, can you find them?
Every now and then you hear a blubb, when a fish is catching a fly.
Once a hawk came all of a sudden out of the bushes and catched a fish. I was a bit afraid it could come
back hungry and catch me.
The "Schwenninger Moos" is a hill moor. Only a few yaers ago, the moor was in critcal condition to dry up.
The the community did something and the waterlevel encreased. Hostmom said, when she was a kid
she could stand at this sign with dry shoes. Nowadays there is a platform, so you can come close to
the sign, but you can't reach it.
Oh those moss-covered tiny hills look so cosy, but it's not allowed to step aside the path nor to let dogs
off the leash. Because you never now, if there is water underneath or ground.
Look we found some mushrooms, but hostmum said these were poisonous.
See how large these treese are? Unfortunately most old trees are damaged by the bark beetle "Borkenkäfer".

Hi Mom,
yesterday we celebrated a farewell party as Butch Flunky and Bjoern were ready to leave the next day. I was so sad and I cried a lot because I like them so much. My eyes were red, so I didn't want to be on the party-pictures.
Today Betzi arrived.
He was right in time for the first snow in this autumn. We built a funny snowman.
When we came back home, I said goodbye to my dear Bjoern and Butch Flunky and grabbed me some handkerchiefs. I hope we meet once again.

Hi Mom,
we had very foggy days. So all the other pictures which were taken don't come clearly so I can't show you more than this one.
This was taken between Sankt Georgen and Peterzell. In Peterzell is a shop where fruit and vegetables sold. These are grown at the Isle of Reichenau in the Lake Bodensee.

Hi,
as my host had a really bad time since a good friend died on 1. December, we didn't made a lot of things to take pictures of. I think it wasn't the right place and time.
But then we went for a walk in the snow.
Although it was a bright day, the picture came out very dark.
Now I'm leaving towards the United States. I'm looking forward to all the adventures waiting there for me.
Bye Black Forest.
