Our trip to Basel!!!

On the 10th and the 11th of December We went to Basel and it was groovy :)

On the first day we went on the train and when we arrived we got changed out of our uniform and had our lunch at a snazzy restaurant. We had a choice to have soup or salad and steak, chicken or the vegetarian option. Then we had a yummy chocolate cake for dessert.

After lunch we saw the actual Saint George slaying a dragon on the side of the big cathedral. After that we had a tour around the city and we went on a boat across the river which was attached to a wire so it wouldn't go down the river. After our boat trip we went to the main part of the city and had a chance to do some Christmas shopping.

After the Christmas shopping we went to the Christmas market. Some of us went on the rides, it was hilarious. After the amazing Christmas market we went on the tram back to the hotel and went to sleep.

The next day we had our breakfast buffet. Then we walked to famous Kunstmuseum with Mr. Uroz. We then looked around the galleries and we got into groups and researched our artists. Then we went to the Tinguely museum and we all got free postcards. It was fun, you had to pass by the art and it would come to life. You could even walk up one of the pieces, like a climbing frame of art. On the way back we saw Santa Claus in a tram and then had a pizza for lunch. Then went on the tram back to the hotel to pick up our suitcases and went home!

Thanks to Miss Beubry for organising such a fantastic trip, and to Mr. Uroz for being such a wonderful and knowledgeable guide around the art museums.
