A Message from Lina in Germany

Hi Mrs Waititi and Room 7,

I have lots of fun in Germany! 

In our first week we went to a castle in Celle and I was allowed to dress up as a queen. I had to put on some huge slippers to protect the old floor - it felt like ice skating! 

Afterwards we went on a horse coach around the old city centre and we had an ice cream with lots of sprinkles.

We had dinner in a very special restaurant and I even had a special children´s cocktail.

At the moment we are at Grandma and Grandpa´s house in Muenster and we are doing lots of biking.

I wish you all a lovely holiday and I´m looking forward to seeing you all again in August!

Lots of love from

Lina and family
