After we got our certificates and said goodbye to the Croatian school, all the students were proud to be part of this project.

We met such nice young people from TURKEY, ITALY, SLOVAKIA, CROATIA and BRITAIN. 🇸🇰🇮🇹🇹🇷🇬🇧🇭🇷🇩🇪

Thank you all for the time of sport activities, fun, making new friends, speaking English and a lot of steps!
Let‘s hope other students will get the same opportunity 🇪🇺

But in the end I was still lucky! Mrs. Eiden found a foil with which we could wrap my suitcase and survived the flight! Thanks to Andrea who packed my suitcase with foil 😁

When our flight was cancelled and we had to get our suitcases back, I saw that my suitcase broke in the upper area... What bad luck!

Since we were often at the border of Bosnia, our mobile phones thought that we were in Bosnia, so unfortunately I got a 60€ bill because Bosnia is not in the EU area

# data[].attributes.body
The trip back to Germany had a lot of surprises for us. The first thing was that the flight was cancelled so we had to book another flight; then our suitcases weren't delivered on time so it was quite stressful.

# data[].attributes.body
Even on our last day on our way home we reached our daily goal - we had to run around in different airports quite a bit...

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption
Our luggage had an extraordinary journey

# data[].attributes.body
That was the luggage of our team.
🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳
Guess how many kilos we had to carry all together?

We had to check-in twice because the first flight has been cancelled. When we finally arrived in Germany (Frankfurt) the suitcases weren’t there! 😳
But: we let us see it positive 😉 we went to Nuremberg without the heavy baggage.

Today we did some Sport Activities in school. It was amazing! The weather was sunny and warm. The first sport activity that we did was relay race. The next sport activity was football: shooting penalties. That was fun, too!

# data[].attributes.body
• we met in the morning at the school for sports

• at first we ran 400m with a piece of wood which we gave to the next runner

• secondly and last we played football, we shot penaltys - it was the last sports lesson at the school and then we went in for coffee and tea, we spoke together and we were called by the head teacher

•she gave us a certificate for being there and then we met later at the restaurant

• at 5 o'clock we met at the restaurant and ate and spoke together, we surprised a girl for her birthday and then the first country left and it was sad for all of us that we had to seperate us

• I found it very nice and I'm proud that I decided to come to Croatia because I made a lot of friends and I had a lot of fun.

# data[].attributes.body
Although we also had such a nice time in Croatia and we all don't want to leave, our flight is delayed and we have to wait a long time and rebook on the next flight... Apparently the country doesn't want to let us go either 😋

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klepetan_and_Malena

Klepetan and Malena were a pair of white storks who became renowned in Croatia for their romantic endeavors.
On 7 July 2021, Malena died due to old age and natural causes, leaving only Klepetan alive.

The story (summarized in the text)

Croatia is a popular nesting spot for white storks.
Croatian janitor Stjepan Vokić found Malena while fishing in 1993, she had been shot by hunters and was unable to fly.
Vokić rescued Malena and became her caretaker. In 2001, a male stork, whom Vokić named Klepetan, began to visit Manela.
Klepetan returned every spring to mate with Manela.
Klepetan made a 13,000 kilometre month-long journey from South Africa to Croatia to meet up with Manela each year.

Today we were at a large waterfall and took a lot of pictures, the water was crystal clear, you could see everything through it, it was fun to look at something like that.

# data[].attributes.body
Unfortunately, we now also have to go back to Germany. We all had such a good time and saw a lot of new things.

# data[].attributes.body
It was a sad but also very nice day. We laughed very much and had fun but as we know endings are very sad.😕 But we have very cool memories and that's the most important thing.

# data[].attributes.body
That was the last photo we took before we left Croatia. it was an amazing time.
I met a lot of new friends and learned some words from other languages and I had the chance to develope my English skills.
It was very exiting and we had much fun. It is a bit sad that everything is a memory now but how we say a person's personality consists of their memories.

Sad but true... Our amazing trip has come to its end... In about 4 hours 😳🫣 we will start our journey back to Fuerth. We had such a wonderful time here in Slavonski Brod - made so many new friends, tried out cool activities and saw the beautiful nature in Plitvice National Park. A big thank you to our Croatian hosts - hlava lijepa 💕. Thank you, Erasmus+ 🇪🇺!

# data[].attributes.body
Beautiful view ⛰😍

# data[].attributes.body
Most of us fell asleep at the bus after that long trip.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we visited the most beautiful thing I have ever seen in my life - we had to drive 4h with the bus to get there but it was worth it! We saw many big and small waterfalls and walked around. I think that was the best day in the Erasmus project week.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we went climbing but my arm was hurting me from the boxing so I was sitting next to the high rope trail with a friend - we ate sunnflower seeds and watched them sliding down and screaming.

# data[].attributes.body
... and even after about 10 hours on the bus - in total - we had more than 13.000 steps on Thursday! What a trip 😅 But as a reward we saw some beautiful waterfalls and talked a lot with our new friends. 😃👍

# data[].attributes.body
To close the walking for today we walked another short round in a small town with more beautiful little waterfalls.
On the way we had to watch our steps because there was a little snake.
We learned you should never touch or get too close to a snake, because there are venomous ones in Croatia!
Could you take a look at the picture and try to find out if it is venomous or not??

Maybe by using this link:

We got wet because there was „rain“ coming from the waterfall 

# data[].attributes.body
Today we were visiting the Plitvice lakes and it was so amazing. We have taken so many beautiful pictures. The water was so clear. In the end we did a tour with a boat. We had so much fun!

# data[].attributes.body
Today we went to the Adrenalin park in Gornja Bebrina. For me this was a really good experience. The climbing frame was not so high. There were different levels with different difficulties.
But we all made it and it was fun.

# data[].attributes.body
Wow... So many steps... Lots of walking in Slavonski Brod. And there is still more to come 😅💪😃!

# data[].attributes.body
Today we went boxing with a professional coach/boxer. At the beginning we warmed up, then the coach showed us some combos. After that we had the chance to fight each other UNDER CONTROL OF THE COACH. We learned some useful things. At the end we watched two professional boxers fighting - it was fun and interesting to see.

# data[].attributes.body
-After Boxing we went to the city center for a short break and returned to the sporting center.

- The second station on the programme was bowling - in German is it Kegeln.

-we had smaller balls than normal bowling balls, and without holes. We roll them and we try to knock all the 9 cones

-we had a lot of fun and it didn’t come to disaster. That’s why I find this was the best activity today!

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion the best activity today was the swimming pool. The temperature of the water was lukewarm.
We played water polo there. That was fun! The swimming pool was beautiful and big. The weather on this day was sunny.

# data[].attributes.body
Boxing was interesting because I could learn something that I have never seen in real life. It was fun to do something you have never done before.

In this picture you can see one of the biggest river in Croatia (Save)
It’s also the border between Croatia and Bosnia. You can walk to the other country - it is just over bridge. (But you’ll need a passport because Bosnia is not part of the EU 🤓☝️)

If you take a close look you can also see people how are paddeling on kayaks. This is one very famous sport in Croatia. 🛶

# data[].attributes.body
Here you can see the 300 years old Fortress of Slavonski Brod.
It’s a very interesting thing to see and it's unbelievable that it is still standing. Right now the EU is restructuring the fortress. It will host a museum for mandolins and about its own history.

Luckily we were able to take all of the seven students to Croatia! 🙏🏼😊

Let’s book the flight, hotel and plan the trip!
