Travelog for: Sansone

In the afternoon we took a first walk into the forest. We took a rest between a group of very nice fly agarics and we felt like in a fairy-tale forest 
On our way back home we saw lots of apple trees with hundrets of apples. Hostmum said this year there are a lot of apples in Germany.

Hi mum,
the next morning I took an early walk with Gianna. It was a bit foggy and the forest looked very mysterious...
Yours Sansone

In the afternoon we took a walk to the Ebersnackenturm, a really high tower made of wood. Before climbing up I assured that the screws inspired confidence 
After climbing lots and lots of steps we had a great view!!
On a slab many towns and distances to these towns and places were engraved. Hostmum showed me the distance to Dortmund, her birthplace and to London.
And guess what, I could look down without feeling dizzy!!
All the best
yours Sansone

Here you can see how small Heinrichshagen is.

Hi mum,
in the afternoon we walked to Kirchbrak a village near Heinrichshagen for going shopping. We walked through a forest, have a look at the big old trees, mum! I found an acorn and a chestnut
In Kirchbrak we studied the map of walks and the information board standing next to the very old church of Kirchbrak.
Back home in the evening we tried a part of Störte's 'Food for the journey' 
Very best wishes
yours Sansone

Dear mum,
today we took a long walk round Heinrichshagen and Kirchbrak.
It was a great sunny day and we enjoyed the walk very much, have a look!
We met some typical German cows, visited another tower (unfortunately closed) and saw the Ebersnacken-Tower far away.
The last picture shows fern, typical for German forests.
See you yours Sansone

In the late afternoon we had our farewell-picnic cause tomorrow we'll go back home to Paderborn...
And in the evening: footballtime!! 

Hi mum,
on the way back to Paderborn we stopped in Bodenwerder, birthtown of baron von Münchhausen who lived in the 18th century and was famous for lots of packs of lies, for example the story of flying on a cannon ball...
After visiting Münchhausen's house of birth I got a souvenir 
Finally we said goodbye to river Weser and drove home. We had great holidays!
Yours Sansone

Dear mum,
today hostmum, Gianna and me took a long walk round Dalhausen, a small town famous for it's basket maker museum. You can see me together with an basket maker 
We admired the great landscape in autumn and met some kind goats Dalhausen is also famous for.
And I explored my first cave 
Best wishes
yours Sansone

Today we took a cycle tour to the house of a friend of hostmum who lives in the middle of a forest together with her husband and lots of saved animals: five dogs (Don is the biggest dog I've ever seen...), five cats, ten sheep, two gooses, ten hens, a cock and Anton the pig. They can live there as long as they want...great!
I introduced myself to all of them and we had a lot of fun
Yours Sansone

Dear mum,
today we took an autumn walk round Nenebeken, hostmum's home village near Paderborn.
There were milliions of beech leafs on the ground.
And today I explored more than one cave 
We passed the highest point of Paderborn's district
See you
yours Sansone

Dear mummy,
today it's St. Nicholas' Day! Yesterday evening my friends Mefito, *Nick*, Lille and Störte put up a boot in front of the door hoping St. Nicholas would fill in yummy things in the course of night...
In the early morning we were so excited and curious while opening the door....and St.Nicholas really had filled our boot!!!
We were very happy seeing the yummy things, only Störte couldn't believe that tere were no  spirits in the boot
Of course we started eating the yummy things as soon as possible
Yours Sansone

In the late afternoon we drove to Paderborn city for visiting the Christmas fair. The cathedral and the townhall were illuminated in changing coulours! Great!
Of course we had to eat something
Hope you had a nice second Sunday in Advent, mummy,
yours Sansone

I wish you a merry Christmas, mummy!
On Sunday we'll go on holiday again. I'll tell you when we're back.
All the best
yours Sansone

Dear mum,
today we started to Amrum, an island in  the North Sea. After driving by car to Dagebüll we went to the island by ferry.
Unfortunately we arrived in the dark so I must wait until tomorrow for telling you something about Amrum.
