So after an already exciting week followed our German class met up in Hannover. We had organised it about a month before 3-5 and had managed to get 8 out of the 13 of us confirmed but after getting there it was just 4, the 3 of us from Marburg and another girl who is studying in Duisburg. Got a pretty awesome hostel in the end, 14,50 euro for our own private room with a shower and not too far out of the town.
First day there we did like we did in Munich and just had a general wander around before heading to get some dinner followed by cocktails and another Irish bar. It had karaoke and we had already done that the night before too at Emily’s leaving Marburg night out, so of course we were in the mood to sing.
The next day we did our own tour of Hannover. its really cool there, they have a red line painted on the floor that goes past all of the main sights there and you can buy a book from the tourist information for 3euro that tells you all (definitely worth the money). After a long day of walking we headed back to hostel for pizza and wine before 3 of us headed back into town to find somewhere to party. And lo and behold we found the red light district of Hannover to party, there was a huge street party with music and outdoor bars so we were all pretty happy to spend our time there.
Morning after and feeling fine we headed over to the Herrengarten (which I saw on Eurovision so had to go and see it whilst we were there), it was really pretty and huge garden and I really recommend a visit to the grotto decorated with designs by the artist Niki de Saint Phalle.
