We walked to Grandma and Grandpa this morning for breakfast, but also to borrow their car to drive to Torsten and Anne's house. Torsten is my Mum's cousin, and Anne is his wife. They also have two young daughters, Ella, who is 4, and Maya, who is 1 1/2. We ate a delicious lunch in two courses (pumpkin soup + pasta with meatballs). Afterwards, we walked around the town, and then drove back to Karlsruhe, where we were going to meet with Uncle Ollie, Uncle Christian and his girlfriend, and Grandma and Grandpa at their house for dinner.
This morning, we were going to go to the circus. Me, Niklas, and Mum took the tram to the circus while Dad drove Grandma and Grandpa. At the circus, we spent a while in the entrance tent, which had a Christmas-Market type fair in it. Then the time came for it to start, and we split up. Mum and Dad weren't going in. The remaining group of people (Niklas, Grandma, Grandpa, and me) took our front-row seats and waited for the start of the show. We were so excited; this was our first-ever circus. The lights dimmed. And then a spotlight appeared; in it stood the circus director. He spoke for a short time, and then the show began for real. I have to admit, the first act wasn't so good. It was a singing, dancing and mute drama performance, with one singer, a mime (a little girl who had gotten a book for Christmas) and her mother and Santa, also mimes, and six dancers. But then the next performance came on, and the next. There are too many to list all of them, but I'll tell you so...
