We had a great camping holiday in Germany last week, but there were some ups and downs! Tuesday
was definitely the biggest adventure. It all started at about seven in the morning, when my dad decided that
we should go to a theme park. While we were still waking up, he started packing the car for a day out,
including food for a picnic. The moment that we left the campsite, it started raining, and by the time we
arrived at the theme park two hours later, it was terrible. We couldn't even walk to the entrance. So we
stayed in the car and ate our sandwiches. Meanwhile, my baby brother started crying because we had
forgotten his teddy. Perfect! After that, we drove straight back to the campsite again. When we finally got
back there, we'd been in the car for five hours. Amazingly, just as we were getting out of the car, the rain
stopped. So we went for a swim in the lake and played some football with the other kids at the campsite.
Afterwards we had a barbecue, and we stayed outside chatting until one in the morning, so it was all OK in
the end.
