Gommern

Gommern is a small town in the former East Germany. Not much happens there, even the German Wikipedia doesn’t have much to say about the place. It was 40c when I was there, and the thought of doing anything in the daytime was unbearable.

Luckily the hotel was right next to a huge lake with sand dunes, which kept temperatures pleasant inside. Here’s the view from my balcony. Unfortunately every twelve year old boy I taught was right there outside my window swimming every afternoon.

The lake was a really nice place to go at night however.

The hotel also had this stone circle in the garden, with different kinds of rocks.

You don’t go to East Germany for the food.
