Egeln
Friday, February 8, 2008 by Reece Harley
Hello everybody! I promise I haven't dropped off the face of the earth... I've been having a wonderful time, albeit without reliable access to a computer!
After my last post the choir travelled to Egeln, a small (rather rural) town situated in rolling green fields about 25 minutes away from Magdeburg. The Young Voices Choir is almost entirely comprised of former students from the local Egeln Highschool which makes for a very close-knit group of friends.
There I met Kathi again (at long last) and stayed with my friend Franzi in her lovely house. We toured the water castle in Egeln, and had a civic reception in the town hall with the mayor before a party in the castle cellar that night. Egeln was great, and it was fantastic to catch up with old friends.
After only a few short days in Egeln, getting re-accquainted with people the choir left for Magdeburg and then onto Nuremburg.
More on that part of the trip later on.
