München/Augsburg/Bambeg,Germany


My trip to Germany was all to brief but I enjoyed every moment of it! I arrived in Munich and stayed in Munich for 2 nights. On the 2nd night 2 girls who I went to school with at Eastern Washington University arrived (Kelley staying in Northern Germany, Jamie is in Passau on the Austrian border.) We went to a beer hall and had amazing Bavarian food and beer! Sadly Jamie could only stay for dinner. The next day Kelley and I caught a train to Augsburg and happily I still remembered my way around town. I managed to get us to my Rotary host parent’s house in a village nearby. I had not seen the since June 2007 so I was excited to catch up! The next day we caught a train to Bamberg for the day to meet up with my host sister Annika (for another host family) she’s studying there and was happy to take us around for the day. Yet again our meeting was far too short, and I was sad I could not stay in Bamberg for a few days. We took a night train back to Augsburg, and my host dad was king enough to pick us up at 12am at the train station. Sunday we spent the day walking around Augsburg trying to visit as much of the city as I could. Everything is closed on Sundays except a few restaurants, cafes and movie theaters. So I did not get the shopping I would have like to have gotten done. Monday I had to wake up at 3:30am in order to catch the train to the airport, since my flight to Sofia left at 9am. I loved every moment I had in Germany, I’m just sad I did not have more time there!
