December 28th to 29th - Grafenhausen, Germany

28 of December

Today we drove to Germany through four different countries. We packed up the house and said good bye. We then drove to a service station where we washed and vacuumed the car. It was much nicer to sit in after a vacuum. After that we were on the way to Germany. We stopped in a service station which had a bakery joined onto it. They had a window so you could see them making it. We had a blue berry muffin which had a hole filled with a blue berry mixture. It was very yummy. We then went back outside into the snow to say a last good bye. (Or so we thought) we then got back into the car and drove into Liechtenstein. From there we drove to Switzerland. We stopped in a town called Appenzell for lunch. It was very cute and we enjoyed looking in the shops around. We then got back in the car and drove to Germany. We found our place with a nice surprise of snow! We settled in and then went out for dinner.  It was a bit hard to find it but once we found it we were ready to eat. It was a nice dinner but also just as nice it get home and go to bed.

Today we went to see the biggest waterfall in Europe. We had breakfast down in a big room with other people at the hotel. They had a very big selection of food and it was very nice too. We then drove to the waterfall. It wasn’t very impressive. We think that it was the biggest waterfall in Europe by how much water there was not by size. We walked around it and mum and I bought a pen knife each. I forgot to mention that we were in Switzerland. We drove over the border for the day. We then drove back over to France and there was a bakery open. It was one of the only things open and we don’t know why. It had a café attached so we had a hot chocolate and bought some bread. While we were sitting down it was snowing outside which was nice to watch. We found a lake which we could visit so once we had finished we drive off to find it.  Once we got there we found a little town on the edge and it had some winter markets on. We went and had a look. We bought some fairy floss and it started to snow so it got a bit wet. We then got back into the car and drove into the snow covered trees. It was so nice that we had to go and have a closer look. We pulled over and got out. It was like Narnia with the snow floating through the trees. We also got the have a closer look at the snow flakes. We could we the star patterns in them. We had to go back to the car because it was snowing hard and the road was starting to get slippery. We got back in and started to drive home. We stopped to build a snow man in a park. We built a very nice snow man but it was very cold and we had to get back in the car. We drove home and had a sleep time there before we had to go back out and have dinner we spotted our snow man on the way. We had to wait half an hour before we could eat but that was alright. We then had a yummy dinner and we then went home to a nice sleep.
