Goodbye Canada...Hello Munchen!

Well I can't sleep. It's the morning Jeni and I leave and I am wiiiiiddddde awake. Perfect time to update my blog. Yesterday proved to be a stressful day for both of us...ALWAYS is the day before travel. I applied for a second credit card ages ago and have yet to receive it in the mail...kind of stressful. I leave for the airport at 9:30am and our mail usually comes at 10:00am...no joke. My Mum, half-jokingly, thinks we should drive around our neighbourhood before we go and track down our mail guy and ran-sack his bag to see of my credit card has arrived...the DAY OF, haha. Schiza!! 

But, the day is finally here and it's exciting...but I'm anxious too! We fly out of Edmonton and stop over in Toronto for a few hours, then board our international flight to Munich, Germany. We should arrive in Munich at about 10:00am Germany time...annnnd let the jet lag begin folks. I usually like to book international flights where I arrive in the evening of the country I'm going to, so I can just go to bed as soon as I arrive, but we didn't have that option. Plus, we can't check into our hostel until 2:00pm...we'll have to wander with our loaded backpacks...grab a beer and maybe some wiener schnitzel...and hang out.

The first hostel we are staying in on our trip is the Euro Youth Hostel. It has great reviews and is loaded with all sorts of foreign tourists (as probably all hostels are). It's close to the train station and very central in Munich...so it should be great! Always wear flipflops. Always. 

Well, the next time I post, I will be overseas! Now it's time for me to get up, go for a run and grab a Timmy's before heading out. Ahhhh, yes, I am back in the land where Tim Horton's is kool! Just a little nudge to all my BC people...I don't know why this paragraph is a different font, I'm a new blogger, whatever.
