Alster in April
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 6/16/05
Alster is a huge big lake in Hamburg... it is man-made.
Every year in April thousands of people from all over Germany come to and throw bananas into Alster lake.
It is a huge German holiday in Hamburg, they throw in the bananas to feed the sea-monkeys.
The German people believe that the sea-monkeys are lords of the ocean and if they keep the sea monkeys happy their boats won't sink.
