had after my final report from Miami I have a very relaxing flight to London, where another 10-hour stay was scheduled. Such a long stopover it is worth the tiredness again to shake a bit and at least superficially acquainted London. The fastest way to get into central London is the Heathrow Express, which has deterred me properly with its exorbitant prices.
At Piccadilly Circus I arrived around 7 clock in the morning I bought a ticket to the famous double-decker bus and I went down just after breakfast time. After a very interesting tour through the main streets of the English capital I have got the chance taken the boat ride included in the ticket to take on the Thames. Actually it increases for the short tour at the Tower Bridge back into the buses, but the boat goes on in the outskirts of London into a summer residence of the Queen. Although I have the bridge with the impressive towers still seen, but then I fell asleep in front of the application to the web. Finally, it was in Costa Rica also has about 4 clock in the morning and the boat rocked on the shallow waves of the River Thames slightly towards the right. The detour via London's commuter belt then gave me a relaxing two-hour nap. Back at the Tower Bridge I changed again and Transport was reasonably fit again at the airport at. Although I've got more than a minimal impression of London, but the city is safe again a more detailed visit. Since we
the Tower in London would not let start, had our plane in Munich for almost half an hour late and so were all pretty glad to finally see me behind the glass. The reception was really very warm and it felt immediately right again in the old circle of friends to be. A bit lucky with the weather we had then also so we could destroy a couple of bottles of sparkling wine with dry feet.
the rest of the week, I enjoyed it finally tackle the budget back a bit with to be allowed. The relationship to all the people was immediately completely normal and it's hardly noticeable that I am not a full year were there. there were a few new features but then, the two girlfriends of Matthies and Benno, I got to know well during this first week.
While the family on Saturday set off to Austria, I packed my bags to go for follow-up seminar in Berlin. After the instructor meeting on Saturday evening, I climbed on Sunday in the morning on the train to Berlin. Actually, I thought I could take the bus to the subway, which turned out to be a misconception, however. So I had to go by bike to the station and that there leave. In a short request from the hot Berlin was so nice to just throw it in the car and to speak out in the garage; this point it appears again true friendship, thank you!
The seminar was with the previous no comparison really. The place and the volunteers were indeed the same and the Havel invites still do not really swim, but the team from ICJA has to change completely to a person this year. The whole atmosphere at the seminar was much more relaxed and so were all the more desire to participate in the activities. Although the topics were sometimes quite redundant with the preparatory seminar, but it was very exciting to see how they viewed from unexpected new angles be. Very nice exchange with volunteers from other continents had come back are. Here, of course, give priority to talks with the people from Africa and Asia, but also our France, UK and USA volunteers had to tell many interesting stories. The whole seminar was therefore held to a positive mood and so we said goodbye today, all with a bit of sadness and security to one or another with certainty once again to face in life.
Now I'm looking forward very first time on the hike tomorrow and finally may get to know the little house in Bramberg!
