TRIP TO GERMANY

We got the opportunity to participate in “Start up with German” competition organized by the Goethe Institut. We had to make PowerPoint presentations based on topics such as Recycling, Teens and Leisure and the Internet. This competition was conducted during our exams so we had to divide our time  between the presentation and academics.We did our best and kept our fingers crossed hoping that we would get a chance to visit Germany. Three months later, we got the happy news that we would be flying to Germany for a 3 week visit.
We undertook the preparations for the visit with great excitement and eagerness. When we met the other participants for the first time, we were strangers to each other. We set out for Dresden from Delhi in a Lufthansa Airlines. The flight was very luxurious: pillows and blankets, adjustable seats, spacious cabins, charge plugs under the hand support and quick attendees, everything available to make the passenger feel at home.
As soon as we landed at Dresden Airport, we were received by the housemaster of our hostel. Dresden has two distinct parts- Die Altstadt (Old Dresden) and Die Neustadt (New Dresden).  Altstadt is mostly the old historical places in Dresden such as the Alexander Complex, The Lady’s Church, etc. Neustadt is that part of the city where social life comes alive.
 One thing we all noticed is that Germans are really punctual and active .The street light allows only 10 seconds for the pedestrians to cross the road. We noticed that all Germans were  across within that time but we would usually be left standing right in the middle of the road when the street light turned red.. Most of the youngsters love to use their free time for sports. We liked the weather there because it was always windy unlike Chennai. Most Germans own a bicycle and use it often. Each road has a separate bicycle path to let the cyclists commute easily. Germans have a great concern for the environment and have a very effective waste disposal system.
We visited Berlin the following week. Berlin is busier than Dresden- it is comparable to Delhi. Each and every alleyway had graffiti all over the walls. Berlin has a lot of historic and interesting places-in particular, the unbroken stretch of the Berlin Wall. We visited the Brandenburg Gate and the Holocaust Memorial. The Memorial was dedicated to the Jews who were tortured and killed by Hitler. The Reichstag is the most visited Parliament building because of its dome, from where everyone can have a 360 degree view of the city. The very air seems to carry a whiff of the past. Berlin has people from all parts of the world. We were very happy when we met some Indians.
We visited a lot of castles and churches, climbed some mountains, and totally had fun in Germany for the entire period of our stay. We had an unforgettable trip. When we returned, we who had left as complete strangers to each other, bid tearful farewells at the airport.
This visit was possible only due to the Goethe Institut and our School, Kendriya Vidyalaya Minambakkam.
We would like to thank our principal, Mrs.Chitra Mukundan and our teacher of German Mrs.Rajeshwari for giving us this rare and great opportunity in our lifetime.
