"It was great. I hope we all will see us again next year. I think it's great to learn English without school and you have a lot of fun at learning and you learn a lot!"
-Felix
"It was a cool week, I found many friends. This is a camp, this is a life!"
-Anna
"It was really great! We became a big familie! I hope I can come next year again!"
-Klara
"Everybody dance now...Toof, toof, toof!!"
- guess who?
but...
...all good things must come to an end...
...until next year!

Oh the stories they told...
Here are just 2 of the stories that were made about the place names in the Kaisertal...
The story of the Teufelsloch
-by Anna
The story is like this:
Long time ago a girl lifes in a little village. This village was on a mountain, and on the mountain there was a cave and in this cave there was a blood hungry devil. And so nobody liked to go to this mountain, 'cause sometimes the devil killed a man and drunk his blood. But one day the little girl walked up the mountain and saw a cave. She was very curious about the cave and she went in. In the cave, it was very cold and dark. She don't know that this was the cave of the devil. During she looked around in the cave the devil was in the village to kill someone. Suddenly the girl heard a noise which sounds like slurp. She turned around and saw a scary person on the opening of the cave. She hidden behind a big stone. Then suddenly the devil turned around. The girl was so scared that she rolling the big stone on the devil. Now the devil is dead and the girl have saved the village!

Day 5 - August 28, 2008 Solo sits – Writing
Today it’s nice. The sun shine. I hear the river. It’s nice to see the much flowers on the ground of the nice wood where I stay.

Hello, I am Felix. I’m sitting on a stone in the river. I can only hear the river. I can feel the sun on my back. The place around me is very nice. I’m writing and drawing.
- Felix
Perfect Creek
Relax
-such a beautiful, sunny day
-the creek is one of the best things in this creek. I really love the relaxing sound that is always around. I like the colors and the water – I will show it sometime to my daughter. The creek is running quite fast and the sun makes it shine like stars at last. The stones we in a beautiful grey there’s nothing else to say.
- Alex, Praktikant
The water is beautiful and loud. I saw a wonderful flower near by the river. The sound of nature is great. The river is clear and blue. When you look at it, you feel happy.
- Marc
I’m feeling the sun!
I can hear the water and see a piece of wood swimming along the creek. Fahr away I can hear a (Grille). And the gras, I can feel it at my neck. It’s wonderful…
I can smell it too, it’s “Natur pur”!
I see a flower, a nice flower! I want it! But stop! It’s a living thing and I don’t want to kill something/someone…
I feel something at my arm… It’s a Käfer and I let it be!
I’m hearing a bird on a tree!
And I am thinking about the song “Lemontree” “…I am”
(summen)…..I am singing.
I look around me and see Andi, he is writing something…
He looks around, see me and smiles.
I am singing “Lemon Tree” while I am looking to the air.
Just be happy and love the nature!
- Klara
I like this place because it so still but I have see a zeck. He set on me but I have früh genug kill he. I think I heart rocks from me. I see a stone. he was big and he was the biggest in this area. I lie left of the way. A flie get on my nerves. Right of the way I see a tree he was jung and I think he was dead. Left of me is a stick he is very old I think. I only heart the water. Around of me are many pflanzen. Any stones I give names, the big ones name is Karl. On Karl are moos, and at the site climbing pflanzen hinauf. And this is my place.

It’s really cool to watch the clouds and hearing the creek. Because of this I paint this picture.

Reality?
Some days ago I had a dream. In this dream people could fly and animals can speak. The earth was as beautiful as some years ago, but the people had all the Technik that we have. I thought I was there for years but suddenly it made Bang! and the picture began to change. The earth wasn’t a beautiful plant any longer. It was dark and grey, it didn’t give rivers seas or ozeans any longer. The whole planet was very dried and everywhere were Vulkans. I was shocked. Then it goes a second time Bang! and I woke up. Since this dream I thought about the earth, the people, and the “Weltall.” When I thought about this there’s also always the question what’s reality. Is reality something that we can eat, drink, feel and smell? Is only the earth a planet where people live on it? Did it give Aliens? These questions were very difficult and strange… For me is reality something I can feel, smell, or touch. I like it this way and I hope these questions were answered… Sometimes.

Day 3 - August 26, 2008 (later that day...)
Great fun with Chickenrun…After lunch we went back to the rock and suddenly Peter got headache. We started climbing and then Nate told eight people to do the “Postmanswalk.” At the Postmanswalk you go on a thin,
rope across a river. The best thing was that you were fixed on another rope. When all the eight people were on the other side we went to the Chickenwalk. The Chickenwalk is a funny game with the slackline. You have to go from one island to the other island and the problem is that everybody of the team must stay connected with each other. It was cool and funny but also very difficult because everybody must have the balance. It was very important to communicate well with the whole team because otherwise you wouldn’t win. Cool!!!!!!- Jucy
Day 3 - August 26, 2008
Safety Climbing? Yes!!!
Today after breakfast we went to a rock and did at first a
funny game for a better balance. Then Nate told us about climbing rules with a funny picture. We have to ask: “Am I on belay?,” “Yes, belay is on.,” “Can I climb?,” “Yes, climb on.” And then we are allowed to climb. Before climbing the buddycheck is really important. After these rules we climbed in teams of 3 until lunch.
