What a great fun ;)

On Saturday my friend arrived. I picked her up in Bournemouth and we drove to Sandbanks to take a ferry to Swanage. Swanage is a small town which is located at the eastern end of the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site.

We parked the car and took a walk along the cliffs.... we had to be very careful because it was very windy but the view was amazing :) You feel so free... 






Afterwards we drove along the Jurassic Coast to Durdle Door, a natural limestone arch. It is very impressive :)








In the evening we went to an English pub and ate Fish 'n' Chips... and I got a whole fish... it was nice but definitely too much!

 
On Sunday we drove to the sea. We took a blanket with us and were sitting on the beach, chating and eating cookies.


 
Then we took a walk along the promenade to the pier of Bournemouth. In Bournemouth we went shopping and I bought some nice new things :)

In the evenings we had a nice dinner in a restaurant with a view onto the sea. 

Unfortunately it`s my last week in England and I have to leave on Saturday – but I had a wonderful time here :) I enjoyed every second and it was an amazing experience for me!!!

Lucky to be here :)


The weekend before last two friends from Germany were visiting us. They arrived on Saturday and the weather was really good ... the sun was shining and we decided to go the beach. It was too cold to go swimming in the sea but it was really nice to feel the sand under the feet. 

 
On Sunday we decided to drive to Bournemouth to go shopping. Unfortunately the weather wasn`t as good as the day before. It started to rain and we had to walk back to the car for 20 minutes – we were completely wet!!!

Last weekend I was in Wales and I visited Bath. Bath is an old Roman town which is worth a visit. The City of Bath was inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 1987. 






In front of the famous Roman Baths I saw a girl playing nice music on a strange instrument called the hang which is only played by two people in the world. 



On Saturday evening I went to a Folk Festival in Wimborne. They played live music on a big stage and I had a lot of fun.


On Sunday my host family took me to a cute English pub. I ate a typical English roast and drank Ale. It was so delicious!!! 

This weekend a friend of mine is visiting me here and we want to see some nice places. Be excited about what happens next!!!
