German phrase needed for cake!

[ChirpyGirl]

One of the dads at our playgroup 'happened' to mention that they are moving home to Germany next week (typical man, no warning!) so next week is the last time we will see them, we want to make a cake with the German equivalent of 'Bon Voyage' or something similar, any ideas?

"Gute Reisen" "alles gute" ?

Auf Wiedersehen, Pet

What Janni said . Genius

"Gute Reise" - Bon Voyage

or

"Viel Glück" - Good luck

Janni's answer is great, but depends how long they have been in UK. They might not know the programme.

But, Auf Wiedersehen means "Until we meet again", rather than just goodbye, so would still be good.

Love it Janni, but they have only been here for a year so they might very well not get it, plus our playgroup has a lot of people for whom English is a second language, so there would be 3 or 4 of us wetting ourselves, and the rest beign bemused

I like Gute Reise, they won't be coming back so Auf Wiedersehen is not really right. Are there any accents or anything on it?

What does 'Alles gute' mean?!

"Alles Gute" means "All the best". No accents or anything...

Untergehen mit das Bieber auf dem Tanzboden?

Not relevant, but hey!

What?!

No injokes allowed (unless in a language I can speak!)

He? Cali, please explain your cryptic message. Asked DH and even he went

It is obviously not right then! LOL

I had to try, obviously badly, and remember it from school.

Our german teacher told us it meant 'get down with the beaver on the dancefloor' so she was obv. wrong and teaching us at GCSE level?!

It's all the wrong way round isnt it? And obviously not the correct words even!

I think it is the right way round, just untergehen, is that not drowning? DH sagt, dancefloor would be Tanzfläche.

But, saying that, I am not sure what you are trying to say in English And you have completely confused DH. Is this some kind of secret American code for goodbye??

OK, so just 'Gute Reise' (no accents) and Viel Gluck (umlaut (two little dots) on the u).

That means: Have a good journey and lots of luck.

Can't go wrong with that now can you?
