We have arrived in Munich, after a night of traveling in an overnight train in our own couchette compartment. I hadn’t actually expected to get our own room, so that was a pleasant surprise. Then, we had to navigate the Munich Tram system, which was harder than it sounds. I think we bought excess ticket stuff, but I really have no way of knowing for sure. Finally, we arrived at the Tent, a really interesting establishment with all the comforts of home plus a mattress pad and a bunch of blankets - as many as we want, in fact.
I’m sure I’m not the only one who is getting a bit nervous about the flight thing. Interesting story - we didn’t find out about the whole thing until we saw comments on the blog. We’re a bit out of touch here. It’s a bit intimidating, actually, especially since I just checked Easyjet’s web site and they have cancelled a flight from Amsterdam to London Luton for today. I just hope that everything goes smoothly, though. Even so, we do have a plan in case we fail at getting back to the US - Cameron ensures that we are all OK (after all, he is Canadian).
I think I’m going to watch what appears to be a movie starting here, because it’s raining quite a bit out in Germany. Someday, also, I hope to become accustomed to the fact that on German keyboards, the y and the z are switched around. Oh, qwertz keyboards.
