So far this exchange has been interesting, I've been in hospital twice, been around the local area, had a fairly good time. This week things are getting seriously bloketastic I believe we are going to Oktoberfest.

Heidelberg
Am Sonntag sind Sarah, Nina and Kelsey nach Heidelberg gefahren, um den Schloss zu sehen. Es war fantastisch!! Wir sind auf einen kleinen Zug zum Schloss gefahren. Es war sehr alt und schön. Wir haben auch die Stadt und die alte Brücke gesehen. Der Tor der Brücke hat wie ein Dr. Seuss Bild ausgesehen.
Das Wetter war sonnig und alle die Leute waren sehr entspannt (that's supposed to mean relaxed!!).
Wir haben Apfel Strudel mit Vannille Eis gegessen. Es war lecker. Wir haben auch Geshenke für unsere Australische Freundinen gekauft. Jedermann haben spaß gehabt.

So, I'm sitting here at school, chilling with andy (the top bloke) and miss flint (belinda flint), I'm talking about blokes and other blokey things. Germany is so awesome but the town of lollar is not so nice, I much prefer it in my home town of Marburg, it is so great there.
I have met many good people and have so far had a great time.
Liebe Grüße

Hallo,
Germany has been great, during the first week which was holidays i spent time in the city of Rosenheim, Mountains around Rosenheim, the Herbstfest, Legoland and i wnt for a four day holiday in Italy where we visited Venice.
Legoland was fantastic, i loved every minuet. The rides were fun and their were lots to see and do. However some of the stuff was for much younger kids, but i still really enjoyed it. My exchange family took me to Italy for a four day holiday, which was so fantastic we spent the 1st day travelling and the second in Venice. Venice is so beautiful, i took lots of photos and ate pizza and gelati!! I also went on a Gondola, which was a great way to see much more of Venice. The streets, bridges, and buildings were beautiful. The weather was great, around 25°. The third day in Italy we spent at the beach whi9ch was so different, you had to pay to get a umberlla and chairs. Also whilst relaxing on the beach, people tried to sell you various things like, clothes, belts, watches, jewllerey and bags. Very different. On our way home from Italy, we passed through the Alps and visited a glacia called Großglockner, which was beautifula and their was some snow which was awesome, however it was cold only 10°.
I have just finished my first week at the school in Rosenheim. On the first day us Australians spent the day doing a street Rally aorund the town. On our second day we went to class with our exchange partners, which was interesting. Their classess are so different. Then on Thursday we and our exchange partners caught the train to Berchtesgarden, where we visited a Salt Mine. It was cool, we got to go on a boat in the mine, also on a train through the mine and on slides that where in the mine. Was a great day. I am enjoying my time here in Germany. Will blog again when i get a chance.
Auf Wiedersehen,
Grace

Everything was really pretty. There were flowers everywhere and lots of different trees in the Botanic gardens.....

This is from Zoe and Cheena :)
So. Here we are in Germany.
This post is written by Zoe and Lucina.
School starts earlier and that means we have to get up early and its bad. (Cheena says grrrrrrr) Driving is scary especially when you are in the backseat while Robi has a driving lesson. The houses all have multiple stories and flights of stairs. They are quite squished together and the story goes that people used to be charged for the width of their houses so they just built really tall ones.
On Friday we are going to Cologne, which will be fun.
Hoping you are well,
Zoe and Cheena
Deutschland
Germany is very different to Australia, the roads, the food and supermarkets and the schooling!
It feels strange in the car because the driver sits on the left not right and drive on the wrong side of the road, the toilet buttons are huge and so are the light switches. The supermarkets are set up very differently and there are heaps of food i have never seen before like mini bananas, and flat peaches. The schooling is different because they mostly just read out of books and talk, i find some classes a bit boring because i dont understand what the teacher is saying!

The school
The school here is massive, it's way bigger than Bse. It's so confusing!! We have no school uniform which is good and sort of bad, because its good that we can wear whatever we want but its bad because we actually have to think about what we're going to wear!!!
In the gym they have a rock climbing wall and even there own pool, it is so cool! Everyone here is so nice, and a lot of the students can actually speak english! Their english classes are so advance, they do film studies..... in ENGLISH!!!!!

Tschüs!
