Trick or Treating in Berlin

On Hallowe’en, we still had not gotten candy so we went out and bought some but not very much. There wouldn’t be so many kids. We all got ready to meet Malcolm’s friend for Trick-or-treating after we decided what to be. I was a prisoner with a shirt that said “PRISONER,” black and white striped tights, black and gray striped socks, navy blue shorts and a pillowcase. The pillowcase was two things: a bag of stolen money (not really) and a candy bag!

Seanna was a witch with my witch cape, purple and black striped tights, and a black shirt. Malcolm was “Karate Man” with his karate uniform. He didn’t have a belt with him so we tied a pair of long purple socks together and used that. We didn’t go to very many houses but we went to a lot of stores. There were a few funny things:

At one house, they gave us cough drops.

At one restaurant they gave us sugar packets.

We went to an art gallery where the man said “Sorry, I only have two pieces of cake and I can’t give each of you a piece.”

Somebody else said “I can give you wine…”

At one store they tried to give us lemons.

And then we got back home and our friend had just got back from France so we shared our candy with him. It was really fun!
