Hello Mum,

We stayed two nights in a town called Wilderness – and took walk here. It was so funny – we had to cross a river – and used this kind of boat.



We had to use the roped to pull us over the river.



Then we walked on this nice way.



The river looked so nice.



Then I met this beautiful guy.



At the end of the trail we took a rest next to this water fall.



This was the view into the other direction.



Back on our way home we saw lovely flowers.



And the river again.



Before we went back into our guest house we went to a place called maps of Africa. Can you see why?



From that place we had a great view over Wilderness and the ocean.



I climbed up a tree – but didn’t see much more from there.

Hi Mum,

This is the church of Montagu, another town on our route.



There were many houses with beautiful gardens.



And a really big tree with so many birds on it.



We didn’t do a lot in this town, because it was so hot – about 32 degrees in the shadow. So we relaxed on our terrace.

Hi Mum,

What a wonderful view! Yesterday we were on our way to Stellenbosch and stopped at the Franschhoek pass. I loved this view!



Behind me you can see our street.



In Franschhoek we stopped at this monument – it was big – and we didn’t went nearer to it.



Red flowers in November – what a wonderful country!



Today we walked through Stellenbosch. This church looked similar to the one in Montagu.



They have beautiful houses here.



This is the mill river – in the past it brought water for the mills – now it is here for nice photos.



Look at this manor!



This plant is so funny – it looks like a bird, I think.



This was art!



We went into this building – there is a funny store in it – with so many different things.



We had a nice time here – now we will drive to our last city on this trip – it is called Cape Town. I will write you from there soon.

Hello Mum,

We arrived in Cape Town – and went onto the Signal Hill. I had great views from it. I saw the ocean…



… the Table Mountain…



… and next to the Table Mountain was a mountain called Lion’s Head.



This is the big stadium of Cape Town.   



And I saw the port with the Waterfront.



I love this place!



Then we went to our hotel – we had such a nice room. It was funny – there was a window between the bathroom and the living-room.







And look – we saw the Table Mountain and the Lion’s Head from our balcony!

Hello from Cape Town.

Today we visited a beautiful garden near to our hotel. Look – so many colorful flowers!



I loved this view with the monument, the Table Mountain and the beautiful building.



This is another nice building with a wonderful garden.



Then we went to the Castle of Good Hope.



They had a wonderful balcony. You can see it behind me.



In front of the balcony we saw the changing of the guards.



Look - I saw the Table Mountain behind the Castle.



Then we drove with a bus through Cape Town. We stopped at the station for the Table Mountain Cable Car and had great views!





Look – there is the Signal Hill, where we stood yesterday.



I had lovely views from the mountains around Cape Town.



We continued our trip and drove along the beautiful beaches.





Christmas is coming!



This was the clock tower near the Port.



Another part of the Port.

Hello Mum,

It was time to visit the Cape of Good Hope. On our way we stopped at this nice point.



Then we arrived at the Cape of Good Hope. First we went to a place called Cape Point. I had lovely views there.



There was a beautiful small lighthouse.



Behind me you see the Cape of Good Hope.



This was the view to the Cape Point.



We saw some baboons.



Everyone took a photo at this point!



It was a nice place!

Hi Mum,

On our way back to Cape Town we stopped at a colony of penguins. We visited another colony at the beginning of our trip – and it was nice to see penguins again.



There were less penguins in this colony – but they had a beautiful beach.



Our next stop was the botanical garden of Kirstenbosch. I saw nice flowers again.



These ones were so funny.





This is a typical tree for South Africa. They have only plants from South Africa in this garden.



Behind the garden there were mountains!



I am sure that you know this man – he is very famous in South Africa.



The next day we had to say good-bye to South Africa – we had a great time here – and saw so many interesting things!

Hello Mum,

I wish you a nice ‚Nikolaus-Tag‘.

In Germany it is normal to put the cleaned boots in front of the door – and you get sweets. Unfortunately we all had no boots – and decided to draw some.





We wanted to wait for the Nikolaus, but he didn’t come and we felt asleep.





The next morning we saw that he visited us in the night.



I was so happy!



Hopefully the Nikolaus brought you something, too!

We have snow in Sülfeld at the moment.



We tried to build a snowman – but the snow wasn’t good for it – so we will try it later this year.

Hi Mum,

I went to Hamburg today – and wanted to see some Christmas Decoration there. Look – what I found in the main station. There were big balls with trains and houses from different cities.



I especially loved the one from Hamburg – it was the biggest with the emblem of the city on it.



This was one of the biggest Christmas Trees in the city.



Look – what a wonderful Christmas Pyramid in such a lovely light.



I saw these wonderful lights on our way home.

Hello Mum, 

We went to a town called Bad Segeberg. First we saw these strong guys.




   
There was a nice building – but I loved the carousel and the Christmas tree more.



Behind me you see the church of Bad Segeberg.



There was another big Christmas tree on this place.



Back home I met some funny guys – first one in the garden.



This guy had a warmer place in the living-room of Stoker’s and Dicker Kumpel’S grandma.



Then I met another frog and we talked a lot!

Hello Mum, 

We went to Hamburg and wanted to visit the Christmas Market.



I loved this beautiful pyramid.



We saw a nice Christmas Crib.



Behind me you see the town hall.



Unfortunately the weather was not so good, so we decided to drive home. I am so excited – we will decorate the Christmas tree next weekend – and I am allowed to help!

Hello Mum,

Christmas is coming – and today I helped decorating the Christmas tree. We started with the Christmas baubles.

   

These two baubles were so funny!

   

This is a very special bird for RikeH, because it belonged to her Grandma.

   

We had more decorations for the tree.

   

   

I loved this snowman most!

Hello Mum,

It was Christmas and Murph and his guests went to Sülfeld to celebrate it with RikeH, Dicker Kumpel and us.

First we met Murph and his guests – and we shared our gifts!



Great, everyone got chocolate!



I received a big Santa!



Then it was time to talk to Snowy the snowman and Rudi the reindeer. Santa was very busy this Christmas – so he sent his two best friends to us.



I started and sang a song. Then I performed a poem.



I must have been great – and I received something nice from Snowy and Rudi.



It was wonderful.



I hope that you had a great Christmas Time too, Mum!

Happy New Year, Mum!
