Church of Our Lady (Frauenkirche) Munich

I'm rapidly approaching a month in Italy now but before last weekend I hadn't really done any travelling around Europe, which is something of a rite of passage for every exchange student. I'm fortunate enough in that I have a few Aussie friends around Europe also enjoying semesters on exchange, and some time ago we resolved to attend Oktoberfest …

I was awaken by the sound of the ambulance at 6am!!! Following that, the cleaning truck moved past.... and no matter how I tossed and turned in bed, I had to drag myself up at 713am! ARGH! The disadvantage of staying in this hotel was the proximity to the main road. Also, never stay on the second floor which was too near …

Well today was relatively short, but fun still. Our plan landed in Munich at 7:45 am and by the time we got baggage and navigated the subways to our hotel and got checked in, it was around 10:00. Of course the best part of this trip was to get to the hotel realizing that our leader, Dr. Pickering, had a major flight issue that caused an entire day' …

Hangovers are fun, said no one ever. Luckily we got massive amounts of sleep, but it's really hard to be a tourist with a hangover. However, I was really loving the extra money spent on our hotel in Munich because we were in the center of everything. We were close enough so that we could walk straight to Marienplatz and the busy city center. We saw …

Chegamos rapidinho no hotel (Holiday Inn - City Centre). Stela e Cacá já estavam no lobby nos esperando. O encontro com a mãe e com o "segundo pai" foi emocionante! Ficaram muito tempo abraçados e chorando juntos. Não gosto da palavra "padrasto". Remete a um domínio de significados pesados, além de ter uma sonoridade pesada também!... rs. Prefiro …

Acordamos por volta das 8h e descemos às 9h para tomar café da manhã no próprio hotel. O dia foi meio preguiçoso...
Saímos tarde do hotel com a intenção de fazer um sightseeing, destes do tipo hop-on/hop-off. Demoramos um bom tempo para achar o local de embarque.
Fizemos, primeiro, um circuito expresso, começando na estação de trem ( …

All right, so after deciding to get some food and beer last night, over sleep, Shannon and I retired to the quiet piano room where no one had been for hours. My mission, to show Shannon the awesome that is Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog. A ha ha haaa... Yet another successful conversion to Whedon fandom. Only downer was that just as we started, a …

After a long and uneventful flight we arrived in Munich around 8am. Customs was a breeze, it seemed to take a lot less time than coming back into the US. Julie and Noah met us at the airport and we were on the train to their apartment in no time. Their apartment is so nice, and in a wonderful area of Munich called Laim. It's a quiet neighborhood of …

Normal day. Sleeper train full of cold wind. Walking tour. Beer and soccer at hostel. I got to talk to most of my friends and family for b day and fathers day. That was my favorite part by far. Yes, considerably …
