Hello Mummy,
I arrived in Remscheid today. I'm so happy. It was a long journey. I think I was hanging around for a few days in the custom's office. But now I'm here and everything is fine.
First I recognized that someone was jumping onto my envelope, then the envelope was opened carefully with a knife. I already could see something green with an orange pecker - that was Bertie the duck.
My new host Katja helped me out of my envelope and welcomed me. I showed Bertie and Katja my package of postcards. Every host is allowed to take one of them. They chose the one with the figure on the roof. They put it onto the fridge door where already a lot of postcards, drawn pictures and a lot of funny magnets are sticked to.
Katja had to work the whole day and she said she needed a little walk in the fresh air. I was also in need of fresh air, you can believe me. So Bertie, Katja and me took a walk.
I'm now living in the attic storey of this house.
As a mail owl I was anger to see a mail box. The first one is standing in front of the police station. Someone should take a cleaning rag and clean it.
In front of the police station a little park is located. Here we took some pictures. I loved the feeling to sit in a tree.
From there we walked to the muncipal park because I could not get enough from green leafes and fresh air. Here I found this beautiful flower.
The roses smelled really good.
On this pillar on every side the names of men are engraved that died in several wars, from the early 1800's until World War I.
In this part of the town I already saw many old houses.
We also found another mail box. This was clean but the wall behind it is in need of some repair work.
I am really tired now. Tomorrow we have to get up early. We are going to a trade fair fot pet supplies, food and so on. Katja is a member of a association for pet rat keepers. They are exhibiting at this fair. By the way, I'm not only tired but also hungry. Who said something about rats? I think I would like one for dinner .... oh, Katja is coming. She heard what I said. No, I won't have a rat for dinner. Not even a small one ... funny people are living in Germany.
I tell you more tomorrow.
Bye
Percy
