Europe 2011

Well, here we are back in Germany again. We were last here in 2009 but elected to skip international travel last year and took a road trip instead. The one that ended up with us being married last week!As this is the honeymoon,  I’ll have to skip some of the details of the trip, haha.

Jet lag is a bitch. There’s nine hours of diffrence between home and here and it certainly makes for some oddball sleeping patterns for the first few days. Although upgraded  airlines seats were pretty sweet to have, I wasn’t able to sleep much on the plane and arrived feeling quite zombie like.

We just pretty well got to our room, and slept most of the day. We did a quick trip around the neighbourhood and got some dinner and that’s pretty well it, so I don’t have much to write about at this time. It is worth noting, however, that every time we use our bathroom, we give people at a nearby bus stop a show as the window is frosted glass that only covers about 2/3 of the glass. Self-consciousness goes quickly on this continent.

The real excitement begins today after I pick up the rental car. Our plan is to drive to Nuremburg today and spend the night before heading on to Prague tomorrow. Methinks driving here is going to be … interesting.

We have no place to stay so we’re pretty well just making this day up and will find somewhere later to spend the night.
