Now we have already been through the toughest time in our journey: the good bye. It was not easy, but we were strong with our hearts.
Chegamos em Düsseldorf as 12:30h (depois de 12:30 horas de vôo e mais 3 horas de espera em Londres) e , mal a viagem começou, também veio o primeiro imprevisto: uma de nossas malas não chegou. Por sorte não era nada importante e ainda no mesmo dia a empresa aérea localizou e entregou a mala na casa do tio da Andrea.
We arriver in Düsseldorf at 12:30pm (after 12:30 hours flight time and 3 more hours waiting in London) and, the trip barely started, also started our problems: one of our luggage didn’t arrive. Luckily, it wasn’t important and in the same day the air company found it and delivered it in Andrea’s uncle house.
Ficamos hospedados na casa da prima da Andrea e, junto com ela e a tia dela, fizemos um tour por toda a cidade, visitando algumas indústrias antigas de mineração já desativadas, hoje transformadas em museus e parques (a região é importante pelas atividades de mineração) e passamos as tardes com a avó da Andrea, “Oma Leni”.
We stayed at Andrea’s cousin’s house. With her and her Aunt, we did a tour through the whole city, visiting some old mining industry, working today as museums and parks (the region is important for its mining activities) and we also spent the afternoons with Andrea’s Grandmother – “Oma Leni”
De Düsseldorf, fomos para Cottbus (aonde moram os pais da Andrea) no dia 13/02. Eles nos levaram para conhecer a cidade de Dresden, aonde visitamos o “Zwinger” (foto panorâmica), a “Frauenkirche” (Igreja da Mulher – uma das mais importantes catedrais evangélica na Alemanha) e também o “Grünes Gewölbe” (Cofre verde – um museu com uma importante coleçao de arte da Alemanha).
From Düsseldorf, we went on the 13th of February to Cottbus (where Andrea’s parents live). They took us to visit the city of Dresden, where we also visited the “Zwinger” (panoramic picture), the “Frauenkirche” (the Woman Church – one of the most important evangelic churches in Germany) and also the “Grünes Gewölbe” (the Green Vault – a museum with a very important art collection from Germany).
Em Cottebus, visitamos também “Oma Anita” e vários outros amigos, incluindo o pequeno Aidan (esse típico Alemãozinho). Alias.....do total de fotos que nós tiramos até agora, metade são dele!!!!!
In Cottbus, we visited also “Oma Anita” and many other friends, including the little Aidan. By the way, from all the pic’s we have so far, half are of him!!!
Bom....o temo aqui foi curto, mas aproveitamos cada instante, mas o sentimento é de que ainda estávamos em casa. Acho que agora sim, a aventura começa de vez!!!!!
Well...the time was short, but we enjoyed every moment, but the feeling is that we were still at home. I think that, from now on, our adventure will really start!!!
