St MARTIN CELEBRATION IN GERMANY

A nice celebration in Germany is St Martin.


Saint Martin of Tours started out as a Roman soldier then was baptized as an adult and became a monk. It is understood that he was a kind man who led a quiet and simple life. The best known legend of his life is that he once cut his cloak in half to share with a beggar during a snowstorm, to save the beggar from dying from the cold. That night he dreamed that Jesus was wearing the half-cloak. Martin heard Jesus say to the angels, "Here is Martin, the Roman soldier who is not baptised; he has clothed me
Max had his first roll and since he back home beg for money they whole time, he fell naturel into his roll.
Kindergarten was invited and we walked a train behind the horses with lights. Afterwards was it gluewein and wurst bit brot. 

A very nice tradition for children as for Adults.

That's Amore!
