Due to the poor weather forecast, we scrapped our original plan to go on a hike on May 1 and came up with an alternative activity instead: An obstacle course was set up in the gym, which the students then navigated. They shimmied along rings, balanced on benches and slacklines, climbed wall bars, jumped over and crawled under obstacles, and had to cross a distance with the help of a rope. That alone sounds challenging enough, but there\u2019s more\u2014during the course, the students were challenged by throwers using balls of various sizes and types. Using softballs, volleyballs, soccer balls, and medicine balls, a team of throwers tried to prevent the runners from reaching the finish line. Gradually, more and more students dared to take on the teachers\u2014who made up the throwing team\u2014and demonstrated, in sometimes creative and adventurous ways, how they could outwit the throwers. But the best was saved for last: The throwing team became the running team, and all the frustration that had built up during the game could finally be vented. <\/p>\n
To wrap up May 1, we were able to uphold a bit of tradition after all, as the barbecue season at the Steinm\u00fchle officially kicked off. The evening came to a close with sausages and steaks, and the first rays of sunshine of the year sparked our anticipation for summer at the Lahngel\u00e4nde. <\/p>\n\n
