Once we had all calmed down a little bit, we returned to the school where we were met by our hosts for lunch. This was the traditional bread, meat, and cheese, accompanied by the slightly less traditional but equally delicious gummi-bears.
To conclude our first full day in Germany, we were welcomed by the principal of Ernst-Haeckel, and the Mayor of Werder. In response to this, the filmed introductions that we spent weeks labouring over back in Auckland were played and Frau Ankersmit gave a presentation on Lynfield College and the City of Sails itself. While our film was, admittedly, a little silly, the humour was not lost in translation.
