Two weeks ago, we – 41 students from Herzberg-Elster – set off on what would become a marvelous adventure to England. Spoiler: it involved a nearly exploding bus, pebbly beaches, mysterious fog, Harry Potter disappointment, and more than enough “Lovely Days” to last a lifetime.
We left Herzberg on Sunday at 10:30 p.m., buzzing with excitement and zero clue what awaited us. Twenty hours, four countries, one bus driver switch (hi, Alex!), and countless snack wrappers later, we arrived at Calais. Miraculously, we caught an earlier ferry. Less miraculously, the sea decided to show us what “motion sickness” really means. Let’s just say… not all stomachs survived the crossing.
