8 hours on a train...

On Wednesday Christine drove me to Muenchen so that we could meet up with Susanne and her family. We went to their house, had cake, drank umpteenth glasses of champagne, tea, and water, and then had quiche. We walked to the soccer stadium where we met up with Christines husband, Ingo, for the game. The German team, Bayern Muenchen, won 4 to 1. It was such a cool game!! Saying goodbye to them that night was bittersweet. I was excited to stay with Susanne and her family but sad to say goodbye to them.

On Thursday Christine took me to Bavaria Film Studios where we went on a tour. It was very cool!! I got to see how some of the most famous German films were made, and also see the sets! I also participated in the acting portion of the tour, where they had volunteers from the audience act some stuff out. The tour was in German so I was a bit nervous about understanding the directions and reading the lines, but I did great!!

That night we went to a beer garden where I drank beer mixed with lemonade and had a nice chat with Susanne and her husband, Uwe.

Today Susanne brought me to the train station. I took a 3 hour train ride to meet Antje to get my suitcase, and from there I went back down south which took another 4 hours. Karin met me at the train station in Nuertingen. She screamed, Molly! Typical Karin, haha.

This evening we had dinner at Omas and I tried some delicious red wine.

Time to go, Molly
