The End of the War

In may 1945 my grandmother was 16 years old. It was the end of the war. In this time she lived with her grandmother on the country in a small village on a farm without animals. Her mother sent her there because in Munich it was too dangerous with all the explosions and there was also famine.
On one day in may american tanks came in this village for inform that the war had been endet. Some citizens hang out some white sheets for showing their devoltion. Everybody knew what it ment. My grandmother was very glad because now she could go back to her parents to Munich. But the problem was how to come to Munich because there was no train or something like that in her area. In the end she found a farmer who took her and her grandmother with his small lorry to Munich. The journey took some hours because the lorry wasn't very fast. When they came inn to Munich my grandmother was happy to be back by her family.
