Translation of meditation in German

We returned to the former capital of the South at dawn and were dropped next to our place. We had a very nice day all in all, although it was very touristy. We felt that we have seen enough of the area.
But the fact that our driver took us there before showing us any of the attraction left quite an impression on us. He lost both of his parents in that war which explains why it was important to him.
We a lot of luck we had made the entire journey in one day, leaving around 1500km behind us. The town turned out to be great. A lot of young people, many bars and restaurant and a great atmosphere.
