day 30








day 30

whoops i skipped a day.

today it is currently 6:30 in the morning i have an hour before my train leaves and i have to make my computer finish the spy/virus sweeps i started lastnight. i would like to defrag as well but i don't have time. when i post this i should be in munich and i should have seen most of the city. any way i'll add more then maybe.

i missed two of my trians today the first left before i got there (my train was 2 minutes late). so i waited an hour and got on the next one then i got the thee next station with plenty of time to spare i got to the platform and a freighttrain went crawling through so i checked the sation arrival thing and yeah the train was supose to arrive already. then i notice the platformed had changed from the hour before. so i ran to platform one and was confused because it was a different type of train and the conductor had just blown the whistle so i wasn't sure i i could board of not and the train went. so i waited for another hour and got on the train to munich and waited for 2 hours.

ok i got to munich just fine but the directions i required me to go on the tram/lightrail thing. i didn't realize how curvey the s-bahn system is here so i found a map and used that to figure out the location of the street. i was wrong but luckily i remembered the photo on line and saw the hostel on the way. so i came in (luckily they speak english) and got my room key. th room is actually two rooms my has 8 beds and the othere has 6 i guess. there is no ac so it is really hot. i'm gonna try to get on the internet now and talk to mom and dad. the hostel is kinda funny there is a price tag on almost everything. i explored the city i couldn't find the fraun kirche for a while it the tallest thing here but every thing else is just tall enough to hide it when you are on the ground.

i see a church in the diastance out my window i'm gonna check that out next. i have to get online to see what and were everything is in munich. i talked to mom and looked up my itinerary and i think i'm ready to go. my batteries going so i'm gonna stop for today unless i can get it charged.


have a great day
bbye

ok i went to all the places here in town
-the frauen kirche
the area in front of the church is so small that you can't get far enough a way to take a proper picture
-the octoberfest place (they are seting it up for october)
it was fairly un impresive it was like a carnival but instead of rides thay had beer tents. however i did see a greek style bbuilding in the back i think it was hephestus the god of going alittle to far.
-the english garten
it was pretty. but small. i think i prefer the kind of nature that is only found in nature (i.e. the mountain bike trail)
-st. paul church
the prettiest church in munich however less popular
-and almost every street in the inner city
the sidewalks are cobble stone but there is a paved potion going on the street side for bike and othere fast trafic.

tomarrow there is an english tour of dochau that is in english and costs 15 euro thats cheaper than what i could do it for. but it would be in the middle of my time in munich and i don't think i could do neschwanstien and hohengua and still make it back to schwabisch hall on time. however i found out that dachoe is on the way home so i could swing over there and then go home. on the last day. neuschwanstien is way south so i would have to do crazy stuff to make that work on the last day.

i'm not sure why but every town in germany has a church and they all are the same. you have the pretty towers in the front and the back is boring tile roof.

i'm not sure why but when ever i go to a place in germany somthing weird happens with my body. on the flight over to germany i got a bloody nose (but i have an excuss i was over a mile high at that point) then i had to pee realy bad between the airport and schwabisch hall. here i got diarea. so i used the bathroom here and went out to lunch. and BAM diarea again so i had to pay 1 euro to use the bathroom (actually it was 80 cents but i put the money in in the wrong order so it had to be 1 euro) and that was the end of that.

i ate burger king for dinner (the first time i have a carbonated beverage in over a month) it was so good to have american food again. then i walked back here and it is curently 8 o'clock

i am going to go to bed soon because i'm tired.
