When we were told to fasten our seatbelts, we asked if there was going to be terbulance, no said the airhostes, we're landing!

After pasport control we met with our drivers, we spent the next two hours driving through the German countryside from the airport in Altenburg to the residential home in Thuringia. We were met by Silvio, Mrs H and Karena who wlcomed us with tea cofe and cakes made by some of the other residents. The gave us our schedule of activities for the next few days.
