Day 1:~ Thursday 13th March

We’ve got to be at school for 5:00am. WHAT? NOOOO! I don’t think that time exists in my day. Well, I’m not the only one unhappy about having to get to school for that time in the morning. My Mum (Still Thinking……) and my Dad (Richard Bruvofetc) aren’t over the moon either. Going by coach to the Shuttle from Folkstone to Calais. Then continuing by coach to Cologne and arriving late afternoon for a boat trip on the river at 4:00pm. After the boat trip an evening meal at the Hof restaurant and staying overnight in Cologne.

Day 2:~ Friday 14th March

Have breakfast and then we are having a guided tour of Cologne from 9:00am-11.00am.(Now 9:00am is more of my time to leave in the morning) At 11:00am we are departing for Munich by coach and a arriving for an evening meal at the Hard Rock Café. Then staying overnight in Munich.

Day 3:~ Saturday 15th March

Have breakfast and then we are going to have a walking, guiding tour of the city associated with the early days of the Nazi Party. In the afternoon we are going to have a guided tour of Dachau. Then at 7:00pm we’re having an evening meal at the Hofbrauhaus, and staying overnight in Munich.

Day 4:~ Sunday 16th March

We are having breakfast and then departing early morning for Nuremberg, and hopefully arriving mid-morning. At 12 noon we are having a guided tour of the Courtroom of the post-War tribunal, followed by a guided walking tour of the rally grounds. At the end of this tour we are going to visit the Third Reich Documentation Centre at 4:30pm. Today the evening meal is going to be the Bratwurst Roslein at 7:30, and then staying overnight in Nuremberg.

Day 5:~ Monday 17th March

We are departing after breakfast for the return journey to Calais for the 9:30pm shuttle, and will hopefully be returning back to school at approximately 11:30pm, and then school in the morning. WHAT? I’m going to be shattered.


I hope you enjoyed my Pre-Trip report and I can’t wait to write my Trip report.

Hi, I'm back and I had a great time. I'll post my trip report as soon as I can. It probably will not be tonight as me and my Mum and Dad are at parents evening. We got home 3 hours before we should have done because there was no traffic. we have also done a video diary which I will post soon.

Well, I've finally got around to writing my trip report. So here goes:~

Thursday 13th March 2008:~Part 1:

:ENG: I got up at 4:15am to get to school for 5:00am, to leave at 5:30am. Everything was packed the night before so there wasn't anything to worry about in the morning. My Mumand Dad took me to school, but I think they went back to bed afterwards. Anyway we left the house at 4:50am. We left school at 5:20am, because everyone was there on time.(for once) We got to Folkstone at about 7:30am. We have a clear journey down there with no traffic. There was a very short queue at Folkstone as well. We then had a 15minute break to go to the toilet and to have a quick look around the shops. Me and Katherine bought a newspaper. I bought mine so I got a free bottle a water. It was cheaper than buying it on its own. We set off for Calais on time.

We changed our watches and started watching The Simpsons movie.popcorn:: :happytv: After that, while Katherine was reading her newspaper a group of us were playing Mario Karts on the nintendo ds. We were playing it on the Wi-Fi thingy. The boys were not too happy when I kept beating them on it.:woohoo: :cheer2:

Baby Bunny in France(He goes everywhere with me, he has had his picture taken in lots of different countries)

As we carried on the journey, nearly at Cologne we went past a nuclear power station. The whole coach was suprised at it. Here are some pictures:~

Great start, Victoria. You must have been tired after that early start. Hope the journey wasn't too long.
