Original

On this day, I drove my car for a long time. I remembered the total distance is 300 km. Considering my gastank’s volume, I decided to fill it full. After my car went down the Austria expressway. Do you know why I decided to do it? As on Austria expressway, their gas stations price is very high, but when we were closed to our goal station, the gas price in there is good value. Finally, I found there was only 47 euro that can fill my cars tank from 0 volume to full volume. I think it is a good price. I think I did a perfect decision. When we arrived our hotel, we found that a good and surprising.. We found our hotel even provide a kitchen. So we took some foods we prepared for this trip in our car and we use oven and some toys in their kitchen to do wonderful and delicious dinner.

Correction

On the third day of our trip, I drove my car for a long time. I remember the total distance is 300 km. Considering my gastank’s capacity, I decided to fill it up completely, after my car went off the Austrian highway. Do you know why I decided to do that? Because on Austrian highways, the gas station’s prices are very high, but when we were close to our goal station, the gas price there was good value. Finally, I found out 47 euro could fill my car’s tank from 0 capacity to full capacity. I think it was a good price. I think I made a perfect decision. When we arrived at our hotel, we found out that a good and surprising.. We found out our hotel even provided a kitchen. So we took some foods we prepared for this trip in our car and we used the oven and some tools from their kitchen to make a wonderful and delicious dinner.

On day four, there is a very amazing route from Austria to Germany. At the beginning of the day… Firstly, we used a whole morning to visit Herrstad on Main. It is a very famous scenery spot. It took a deeply impressed memory to us. Let me briefly introduce something about it to you. On one hand, the spot provide a slide that can make traveler slide down from top to bottom. When we finish it, we got a picture to show how many fast did we do. It can not only hold one person but two people or three people. It means your whole family can sit on the slider from top to down. That’s a wonderful experience. On the other hand, they also provide 4D or 5D films to show what happened in the salt mine. The guide was also nice guide who can speak two languages. To share these stories with us. She switched two languages very frequently and very smoothly. I would never forget this.

On day five, it was also a long day. It’s hard to do a perfect summary of all them. One aphorism: if our God wanna close our door, he would open another window. When we arrived at region of Germany, we didn’t choose to go into a scenery spot named as king lake. Rather than go into McDonald’s to have five pieces of chicken wings as there was heavy rainy at the time. Fortunately, we drove our car to a place where can observe a brief view about the spot. Google Maps is very useful. It helped us to avoid those places which forbid us to go in. Google company is great company.
