Not long to write cos my time is running out (and this keyboard sucks).
Am now sat in the hostel in Vienna. My feet are soaking because I have been walking round in the rain in sandels (because I am that much of a moron...But mainly to give blisters a break). Our time in Munich basically went like this -
Munich -
Went on one of the lovely free tours that New Europe where we had this really over enthusiastic guide called Kari who found everything there completely "Awesome".
Stayed in a strange hostel ... Well it was ok but there was a slight incedent one morning... The hostel had dorm rooms of 40 (there were 4 sections of 10 beds each seperated by a mini wall)and one morning me and Jenny awoke to hear the following being said in a very loud American accent -
"Well, it must have been you because you were running around without your clothes on"
"No, cos you were the one puking everywhere"
"yeah but you are naked! Look its all over the floor!"
Well to cut a long story short one of the lads had (I know this is gross) shit himself...on the floor somwhow. Wrong.
We met some very nice Australian people and went for some drinks with them. It was cool because one of them is the only other person i know (apart from my dad) who has ever seen the castle ("we´re off to Bonnydoon").
We had an epic fail day which basically consisted of us having all these plans to go out and be German (well eat german food and drink alot of beer etc`) but we ended up going on a mini shopping spree and eating pizza and ice cream (which of course Jenny "2 spoons" Elliott spilt all down herself)
We also went on this amazing "Beer challenge". This was basically a tour of the biggest Beer halls in Munich where you learn some traditional songs and get some free drinks etc. But it turned into a pretty mad night.
We went to the Haufbrahaus(SP) and attempted to drink a Moss (which is a litre of beer). Now i cant drink a litre of any liquid let alone beer but I did really well, got 3/4 through before we had to move on so I gave the rest to the Norweigan lad who downed it. (Kudos to Jenny who finished hers)
The rest of the night gets quite hazy from there but it basically ended with many drinks being broght by the nice Canadian couple (Who also invited us to Calgary next year for something called Stampede which is a huge festival apparently...which of course we plan on going to)
Attempting to build a human pyramid in the bar.
Some rubbish attempts at brak dancing.
Alot of shouting "The North" or "Scotland" at people.
Dancing on the bar to the German version of 99 Red Balloons.
The Norweigen lad getting off the train at the wrong stop to be sick ... Then not being seen after.
A glass smashing which may or may not have been me.
The next day was awful though. I felt like death.
We decided that we would leave Munich and hitch to Salzburg (because Austria seems a good option because is on route to Budapest). We seemed to run into slight difficulty though.
We got a lift to a station good for hitching from a lovely man called Christophe (Who was a mechanical engineer). He even waited whilst Jenny went to get Ice Cream sundaes from Burger King to cheer us up.
At this service station we had very little luck because no one was heading in our direction. But we did meet some very nice people and we even made little signs up that said "Salzburg oder Wien Bitte" .
We did meet a very nice couple who drove us some more of the way.
Then eventually this nice man who was in the Army who drove us down to this town on the border (hze was lovely but he couldnt speak very much English and just attempted to tell us about Bavarian lakes).
After a 10 minute train journey we arrived in Salzburg.
Oops must go.
