Concluding 完结篇


We left Ruegen Island for home ( Wendlandt's house in Kleinmachnow near Berlin ) on 29/6 morning by ferry.

We stopped by a town called Greifswald to visit Dorit's younger sister Christine who is a teacher. It has a beautiful town square.

It was school holiday, so she took this opportunity to show us her school ... and it was an eye opener for us.

The school is considered an old one and soon to be demolished. A new one would be built on same site (the school would be moved to a rented building temporary). But to us, its condition is 20 times better than our normal primary school at home.

We were impressed by its facilities, good learning environment and inspirational activities of students.

We made 2 more stops along the way - Gerd's office for him to pick up some documents and a factory outlet to buy sausages and salami.

When arrived home at Kleinmachnow, we were so happy to meet Claudia, who is on job secondment to Frankfurt. She was back for the weekend.

We have Chinese dinner at night.

The next morning, we left for Bonn. ( Already posted see To Bonn)

We returned to Kleinmachnow to stay another 2 more days, then bid farewell to Dorit and Gerd, thus concluded our most memorable journey in Germany.

With this post, it also concluded our 6 weeks holiday in Europe!

Thanks to everyone for your visit to my Blog and Facebook pages. I am grateful for all your interest, comments and sharing throughout the journey, you have made it more colourful and memorable.

Thank you.

我们在29/6早上,乘搭渡轮离开吕根岛,回去温特兰先生靠近柏林市的家。

途中,我们到一个叫 Greifswald 格雷斯瓦的市镇,拜访温特兰太太的妹妹葛丽丝婷,她是一名教师。

因着学校假期,葛丽丝婷乘这机会带领我们参观她所属的小学,对我们来说,也是大开眼界。

这是一所旧学校,不久将会被拆除,以便在原地新建一所更现代化的学校,但对我们来说,目前之间所谓旧学校,它的状况比马来西亚任何一间普通的小学,还好上20倍!

这所学校的设备,学习环境,教学方法及学生的创意活动,给我们留下了深刻的印象。

离开了这市镇,我们另外也停留在两个地点 - 温特兰先生的办公室,拿一些文件; 一间香肠厂的销售部,购买德国香肠。

回到了家,很高兴的见到温特兰夫妇的女儿Claudia。她目前是在法兰克福工作,周末回家探望父母。

我们共用了华人晚餐。

隔天一早,我乘搭火车,到波昂去探望另几位德国朋友。(已上载帖子 去波昂

从波昂我们再次的回到温特兰的家,逗留多两天,然后就离开德国,回到阿伯丁,结束了我们在德国两个星期的难忘假期。

这帖子,也正式结束我们在欧洲的整个行程。

我非常感谢朋友们登录我的部落格及面子书,关注我们的行程,也分享及给予评语,使到我们的假期更加具特色及精彩,永志于怀。谢谢。
