Yes, we have finally made it to Germany, to the final meeting and we were all looking forward to seeing our “Train for Europe - Digital Revolution 4.0” adventure running at our final presentation and of course to meeting all the European friends again.
The meeting started with a beautiful welcome dinner at a small restaurant in the middle of Bad Kreuznach, just in walking distance to our hotel. It was the time that we, all those involved in the project, said hello to each other. Of course, we talked a lot about the project, our work, the machine and our trip to Germany.
On our first day, Heinz and his colleague Elina gave us a tour through the city of Bad Kreuznach, to the famous "Brückenhäuser – Bridge Houses" and the historic center of this town in the southwestern part of Germany. For lunch, we went close to the main station to fight hunger in an Asian restaurant. It was delicious!
In the afternoon we went to school and started our meeting with a review and the first work line and group work sessions. The focus of our work in the different groups was the preparation of the final meeting on Friday. Only two more days to fix any technical problems or solving minor problems of our infrastructure, at the camera, the software or our wagons. Some students directly went to the workshop and assembled their installation, others stayed in classrooms and worked on the concept for the final presentation.
