Go to full travelog

Essen, Germany - 23rd February 2012

By: Tiffy

Hey Mummy!!!

Today I was allowed to go to Essen with Tiffy, to visit the Travel & Camping trade show! =)
It's a trade show about the trends in the travel industry.
There we're some countries and cities which showcased their destination.
Some of them were kinda boring.. but some others were really interesting!

But first of all we had to go to Essen by train... Essen is not far away from Bochum. We only needed about 15 min to arrive in Essen.
This is me at the Bochum train station.

At the station we had to take a look into the railway shedule, so that we knew which train we had to take and when it would depart...

So and this is me at the station concourse and there was a huge destination board, which listed all arrivals and departures of the trains!

Waiting for the train at the platform was kinda boring... but we had luck and our train came in time!
Many german trains arrive with huge delays... but this train not! Lucky us! hehehehehe! =)

and here are some snapshots of me at the trade show..
this was the huge stand of Croatia... this was really impressive and I'm sure, that Croatia would also be an interesting land to travel to!

This was the stand of Finland, and they had a real reindeer there!
Can you believe that? But I'm sure, that the reindeer had no fun there =(
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-24WikYFrWRs/T0Z8qW7UESI/AAAAAAAAA7M/MsO6cH_1wE0/s512/2012-02-23%252010.40.34.jpg

And there also was a stand for Australia, where you were able to buy some typical Australia things, like hats, roadsings,  plush toys, books and some many other things! =)
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-j1UVed8vwBQ/T0Z8va42ReI/AAAAAAAAA7Y/iNZaUZ1bA7A/s512/2012-02-23%252010.50.18.jpg

Hehehe and then I met a funny guy at the "Europapark-Rust" stand.
The Europapark is a theme park in the south of Germany.
And they were also showcasing their park and there was a funny clown, who was dressed as a cowboy but he also had a red clown nose!
Funny! So I also took a photo with him, and he liked me and said, that he thinks, that it's really cool that I'm travelling through the world and he never met an owl from England! Hahahaha! So funny!
I'm on the left... and the mouse on the right is the mascot of this theme park.

I had a really fun day at this trade show.. =)
Hope you enjoyed the pictures I took there!

Love you,

Bubo
