Scwarzwalder Kirschtorte

So, back to Germany. What a magnificent country. Apart from basic facts and figures we admired beautiful photos of major cities, learned what all inventions came from Germany - now we know Diesel engine is named that because Rudolph Diesel invented it, for example. From the not so scientific ones we were amazed that gummy bears are German invention. Way to go Germans! It seems it is also thank to Germans that we decorate Christmas trees. Did you know that?

We made funky Edelweiss Hats for crafts and we also sang the famous Edelweiss song from the movie Sound of Music. Such a beautiful, gentle song that kind of forces the singers to sing softly or as we say, using soft voices. The German dance made us all cheerful again and hungry! Black forest cake was our snack today! Yummy!

Games, few surprise dance performances, a singing performance and the day again got over too fast. Summer camp is fun and time flies when we have fun.

Tomorrow we are off to modern Italy. Ciao! A domani! :)

Good morning! Let's sing our morning song..Together we can change the world...
