Today we were allowed to sleep a half hour longer than usual. After the breakfast we evaluated the whole week in our national groups. Later on we presented our results to the other countries. Then we went outside for the Alane dance, and had free time to do our tasks. In the afternoon some of the German participants' parents and the mayor of Florstadt came to look at our exhibition. A party service came to cook for us and the visitors. The mayor gave us our youth passes in a small ceremony. We had an end-of-the-week party to end the FMF week in Germany 2016. It was awesome!

BLOGPOST FRIDAY


We woke up at 7:00 o'clock. We ate a quick breakfast and after that we went to the bus station and took the bus to Friedberg. In Friedberg we had to be very quick because the train to Frankfurt left the station within just 5 minutes. After 20 minutes we arrived at Frankfurt central station and there we went to the tram, after which we changed to the underground. We went to the climbing hall and we spent about 1,5 hours there. Next we went to the museum of Anne Frank. For 1 hour a guide of the museum explained the story of Anne Frank and her family. After that we went to the center of Frankfurt and we seperated into small groups and had 4 hours of freetime. We went to the train and arrived in Staden in the late evening. We went to take a shower and after we went sleep.

BLOGPOST DONNERSTAG

Today the group was woken up with some good mood music at 8am. After a morning gym session by the french group with fitness tasks and stretching, the french youngsters taught us a typical dance  from their home region. At 10 a.m. two members of the Schwarzkopf Foundation lead a workshop with some knowledge and exercises about the European Union. Afterwards the results from the different workshop group were presented by the participants of FMF to the whole group. The afternoon started with a cooperation game called „The Snake“. There 1-2 participants from each country formed an international team to search for hidden codes with which they could solve tasks which prove that the cooperation in the group is very good and the communication in English is not a problem for anyone. Additionally, we had a lot of fun. Afterwards we prepared in creative workshops what Friends meet Friends means to us and why we are particpating in it. There a poem and several pictures in 3 languages were created. The evening ended in the Disco where we had a lot of fun and enjoyed dancing and laughing together.

BLOGPOST MITTWOCH


Today we woke up at 7 am. We were given lunch boxes for the day because the bus came at 8 am. We drove to Point Alpha, the former border between West and East Germany. We took a tour around the border. The tanks were amazing, big and powerful. It started raining. We also had two timewitnesses speak about their youth and how they experienced the border state of Germany. At the end we were really sleepy and on the trip back we all slept, because the tour was very exhausting. In the evening we did a campfire, and we went to sleep very tired from the day.
