Riley's Adventures

Germany has raised lots of money for Hannah. Our Goal is 350 Euro (455 USD). Look Below for the thermometer of how much money we have raised. This will be updated everytime bottles are returned(every 2-4 days). Just my class and another 2nd grade class(Ms. Bri's class) has raised just 75% of whats filled on that thermometer. My class for "Pennies for Peace" has already raised 200 Euro, my class is very kind, and genorous.

Today(1/16/2011), we went for s long bike ride. We rode all the way to Laubgast, to the nearest gas station and put air in Dad's tires. We also blew all of the dust off of our bikes, because they have been just sitting in our storage room in the basement for months now. After the gas station, we went down a side street and looked at the horrible flood. I was halfway down the side street and it was touching my feet! It was crazy! I think I read somewhere this was the worst flood Dresden ever had! After that we just rode all the way back home. Dad went jogging and Mom took Toga for a walk. Me and Maggs were just in our room, doing our normal weekend stuff...

Hannah, I'm sure you all know that she lives in Ballston Spa, and is seven years old. Late in November, she found out she had leukemia (a type of cancer). She is going to get a bone marrow transplant in February, 2011.

In Germany, on December 31st, 2010 at 5:00pm we were at Mincho (a resturant located at Pirnischer Platz). I had fried rice with meat, which was really good(untill I found some kind of vegtable I hated!). We walked out of the resturant, and walked to where the Zwinger was(Theaterplatz) and saw the Silvester Festival, but it's not one of those festivals that's free to enter, it costs 5 Euro to get in per person. We didn't go in the festival, we just looked threw the holes of the gate. After that we just walked to Albertplatz Tram Station To get on the tram #6 home. On the way there, we saw people lighting fireworks in the middle of the streets, saw fireworks in the sky, and people lighting fireworks right in front of the tram station! We did not light any fireworks. But it was just enough fun seeing the fireworks! We got on the 6 Nidersedlitz tram to the Schillergarten, they were having a dance party, even with one of those lights! It was even free! We went in and bought a p
