After an attempted delay...

What I Did on My Summer Vacation...

Day 1:
Planes and Automobiles... somewhere in there we crossed multiple time zones, bringing us to the actual day 1 upon our late arrival in Frankfurt, where we ran to make out next flight, which had of course changed gates, so we ran a little more. I had absolutely no problem sleeping from Frankfurt to Munich, except for that turbulence bit. I'd never actually heard a person scream on a plane before!

So... we arrive in Munich. After picking up our rental car, we realize that Chris left the map and the directions to our hotel on our kitchen table. Do we ask for directions? Nooooo, we simply drive around and get lost in Dachau before finding a map so we can get back to the airport.

(I'm trying to make a soundtrack to go with the story lest some find it boring or uniteresting, in which case, said people could also stop reading. so nyah.)

Eventually we find our hotel and nap for a bit before going to the Italian restaurant next door, where I had yummy gnocchi and a banana split. Then back to bed.

Day 2:
In Which We Learn How to Read German Road Signs... which are mostly in English, but don't really have exit numbers, but rather, you just keep going to towards the town you need. Anyway, we drove into Munich, ate lunch and walked all over the place... Marienplatz... Altes and Neues Rathouse, a lot of little shops... then we came back home. Our plan was to go to the English Gardens, but it kept raining whenever we walked in that direction, and then our parking ran out. I did buy a swatch watch with little squirrels running all over with acorns!!!

More days to follow - I seriously cannot remember what we did for two out of the ten days, I'll ask Chris tonight! :)
