Friday 17th July 2009
On the flight back home we went through alot of turbulance but seeing as we were Davison girls everyone found it so much fun. When we arrived at Heathrow we were lucky enough to see James May from Top Gear. The first thing everyone said was how cold it was, thats how we new we were back in England. How sad we were, we all wanted to go back to Germany.
The night we went BOWLING
I never knew there were so many ways to get a bowling ball down the lane, we certainly tried a few. From slow motion to lying on your belly the ways got even more complex each time. The free socks kindly given by the bowling alley was definately the highlight of everyones day. We had an a hour and half in bowling alley made some of the scores unbeatable, including four strikes in row by Sophie Williams.
Here is a short video:
TV Tower
After a depressing morning at the Concentration Camp and a historic afternoon at the castle, we walked to the TV tower in the middle of Berlin. Being over 286 steps and 368 metres high, we were glad they had an lift to rush us up. When we got to the top the views were overwhelming of this great city at night, we could could see everything, including the sites we where going to see on the tour the next day. Everyone managed to have fun at the top of the TV tower even if they were scared of heights, one group even had a photography competition going on. We were up their for about an hour and it is amazing how much one place can change in a scene at night.
Here is a video on the Tv tower- The only way is up....

Sophie Charlottenburg Schloss
As you wander round the beautiful gardens you will see a lovely water fountain, and on a hot day you will not be able to resist the temptation to jump in and cool off. Many of us did. Just as Miss Seear and Miss Comben came over to have a quiet word, they saw Mr Mcdonald Bowyer (Deputy Head Teacher)joining in and taking photos for us. Over all we had very good day despite the muggy weather.

Zoolologischer Gartens - Berlin
No, its not Knut on Frau futcher's head she had just brought a silly hat.
We were trying to act our age until the excitment of the playgroud with sand overcame us and we gave into the temptation and all rode the wobbly dragon.

Terminal 5 Heathrow
Is this just too early?
Is not often that you start the day at 2.00pm but today is clearly different. 44 Davison students gathered in the darkness on the car park of the school surrounded by anxious parents. Goodbyes have been said, cheeks kissed, and we are now on our way. In a minute I know that the girls are going to stop talking. I thought that they would do that 20 mins ago. I guess it is just too exciting.
