Riverdance in Freiburg

On January 28, we went to Freiburg to see Irish dancing. The group that we went to see is called Riverdance. The train trip was an hour and a half long, half an hour to Offenburg and an hour the rest of the way. We had a good trip, no train cancellations.


When we got there we walked a couple blocks to our hotel. We were staying at Novotel, a very fancy hotel. There was a small swimming pool there. So small, in fact, that we did not go swimming. We also saw some people in that hotel that we thought were going to dance.


At 8:00 we were in a room with a stage and about 1500 other people. In the middle of the show a man came out to sing. Dad said he saw him in the elevator in our hotel. He had goulash for lunch. (Not that that really matters).


It was a good show. Some of it was talking though, and was all in German. At the end we called a taxi to come pick us up and take us to the hotel.


The train trip back was the same, nothing out of the ordinary. So, all in all, our trip to Freiburg was just as we had planned.
