Wandertag...to Manheim

Today we traveled to Manheim for the day. We were not required to attend school at all, since it is the last week of school, and students went on their own trips to parks and other towns too. In Manheim, we walked everywhere, and one of the places that we stopped in to visit was a science museum called the Technoseum (Technomuseum). It is the German equivalent of Norwich's Monshire Museum. After spending about 1.5 hours in the museum, we walked to the main street to buy lunch and go shopping in the various shops. It was a hot day, but it was also nice to be able to wander the streets without being required to attend a tour or specific historical sight.

This shot of my two friends is from the Nano section of the museum. 

Here, my friend Alex tries out one of the displays. This floor in particular had lots of fun stations. I think that we were the oldest kids on the floor (average age must have been 7!)

Here is the roundabout in Manheim...complete with fountains and beautiful lawns and gardens!
