we went to Logelheim, sylviane's town, to see the festival of the pumpkins or halloween. Me, toh, brian, irfan, dinie and fifi walked from our house to that town, while taufiq, ustat and fadhil cycled there for certain reasons which will never be disclosed. We left our house at 6 and we walked through the forest and arrived at Sundhoufen at 7.15. We were tired when we reached Sundhoufen, but Logelheim was still a long way to go. We finally arrived there at 8 after risking our lives walking next to a busy road where we were inches away from the reckless drivers.

The festival was great. Almost everyone in that town participated. Almost every house was decorated with pumpkins. There were pumpkins merry-go-round, pumpkin statue of liberty, pumpkin eiffel tower, pumpkin smurfs and also a pumpkin carriage. Kids were all dressed up in halloween's costumes while we do not need anything to make ourselves stand out from the crowd as we were ( i think) the only asians there. I wore my orange t shirt just to blend in. I was hoping to camouflage between the pumpkins so that no one could see me. But it didn't work.

We left the town exactly at 10 and arrived at the edge of the forest at 10.45. The forest was so dark. Luckily we bought a torch light before going. Finally, at around 11.30 we arrived in the 'outskirts' of Colmar. After the forest everyone was talking about what they saw and heard in the forest. It was quite scary. We arrived home at nearly midnight. We've been walking for 6 hours today. It was really a walk to remember (note to toh: i just can't help it, using that movie's name here)Posted by Hello
