Dear Laura,
Germany is amazing! The scenery in the countryside is very beautiful.We got to ride through mountains when we went to Munich(慕尼黑).The city is exciting ,and there are lots of shops everywhere. At home, people stay inside and work for most of the day,but people here like to go out more often.
Our choir(合唱队)sang in a church yesterday. You should have heard how beautiful our voices were! It was an amazing experience and the people there really enjoyed it. Later ,we went sightseeing around the main square. The buildings are very beautiful and old. There is a much greater sense of history here than there is at home.
The one thing I'm not crazy about is the food. The eat so differently here! First of all, they eat lots of bread and meat, but not many vegetable. Also, they drink a lot of beer. I was surprised to see fifteen-year-old kids drinking beer with huge cups, right in the square! My favorite foods here are the apple-juice soda and the huge soft biscuits. But they don't like these.
People here dress well ,and everyone seems confident and beautiful. They ?re in great shape mainly because whey walk a lot. Most people don‘t even have cars! I‘m surely getting in better shape from walking around so much. It‘s good!
I‘m having a wonderful time with my friends from the choir. Erin and I have been walking out a lot. I‘ve been getting to know the older kids. I really respect them. It‘s amazing that music and traveling can bring a group together.
Yesterday evening, the boys from our choir sang for people on the street, and people
