Finland
| Wednesday 25.9.2013 We started our journey to Hungary from our schools yard at 5.30 (Finnish time = 4.30 in Hungarian time) in the morning. We took a bus ride to Helsinki, Finland's capital, from where we got onto a plane and took a flight to Budapest. The bus ride and the flight both lasted about two hours. The bus ride wasn't very exciting; almost everyone was sleeping, due to the early wake-up. Finally at the airport people started to wake up, and then I asked them (who were awake) what did they expect from the trip, or from Hungary. Most of us didn't expect a thing, maybe because they, including me, haven't been to Hungary, or neither on a Comenius-trip before. Gladly one of our teachers gave me an answer; she was expecting that everything would be as great as in previous Comenius-visits. One Finnish student gave also an answer; before leaving home, she had thought that Sofia was the capital of Hungary. Gladly her mother corrected her knowledge before letting her daughter "on the road". The flight went like flights normally do, so nothing special happened. In Hungary we Finns were quite positively surprised; the temperature of 4 Celsius in Finland had switched to a much more South-European 24 degrees Celsius. The sun was also shining, so I think that the locals were quite amused by a group of Finns wiping off sweat from their foreheads. From the airport we got a ride to Dabas, and after a sightseeing tour etc. we were let to our host families' hands. Everyone got to Dabas safely, and most of the tired travellers went to bed early. So good night !, or Hyvää yötä !, how we say in Finland. :) Mittwoch 25.9.2013 Wir haben unsere Reise am Morgen um 5.30 gestartet. Wir sind erst nach Helsinki gefahren, und dann sind von Helsinki nach Budapest geflogen. Unser Flug hatte ein wenig Verspätung, aber schließlich sind wir in Budapest angekommen. Dann sind wir von Budapest nach Dabas mit einem Auto gefahren. Unsere Fahrt war gut, und alle sind am Reiseziel angekommen. :) Dann haben wir z.B. Sehenswürdigkeiten in Dabas gesehen. Am Abend hat man uns unseren "Familien" gegeben. Dann sind fast alle müde Passagieren eingeschlafen. |
