Journal Entry from 10/31/2009
While you were dodging Ghouls and Goblins this is what I was doing…
I woke up at 8am, stumbled into the kitchen and Blair told me to go back to bed because I am sick and she wanted me to rest. It didn’t take much convincing me (surprise surprise) I turned right back around and slept until 11:15. After a quick shower and a chocolate sandwich for lunch we left for the Polish airport around 12:15. Once we arrived at the airport I checked my luggage, bought some Haribo gummy bears and boarded a hot pink airplane 1 hour later. In what seemed like 15 minutes the pilot said “prepare for landing”, I am still convinced it was only a 15 min flight but anyway… As soon as we entered Germany The Lord was showing off outside the airplane windows with His gorgeous snow capped mountains. I was in Awe. We landed in Memmingen, Germany and got in a taxi with Mrs. Jeff Gordon to the train station and from there took a train to Munich. We arrived in Munich and immediately began to search for our hostel, we walked in a circle around the city and after coughing up a lung we ended up taking the tram in front of the “train station”, which took us straight to our hostel. My roommates include Liz, Blair, Shannon, a German lady that does not speak english and a German man that does not speak english. The language barrier doesn’t seem to be a problem though because the girl was still able to communicate to Shannon “Get your light out of my face” and the man only wakes up when he needs a swig of his beer. I just had cheeto puffs and chocolate for dinner, now with my knife and Bible at my bedside I think I will go to sleep and pray I don’t get bed bugs…
— We did stay in a Hostel our first night in Munich, but we have been in houses with very nice people since.. We will be in Munich through Wednesday and we will head to a little town called LAM on Thursday… I will keep you posted on stuff that actually matters in the near future… Thanks for keeping up with me.. : )
