greetings from COLOGNE, germany!
robert(with a french accent) and i are sitting in this cafe waiting for our laundry to be done.
its hot outside.
im wearing a skirt(probably to short for day-time wear) and a tank top and im to HOT...as usual.
so far we´ve been to munich and freiburg.
munich was really pretty..heaps of greenary which im not used to after living in dreary england. in munich theres the biggest park in europe called english gardens complete with a river to swim in and..of course, 3 beer gardens. we went swimming in the river and seconds after we got wet it started to POUR so we made a mad dash to the nearest cover. before we found cover we saw these guys surfing on a huge wave in the river. it was only about 4 meters wide if that and the wave was problz 1 meter high...it was so cool theyd jump in on they´re boards and go back and forth..the coolest thing ive ever seen. well maybe thats a stretch.
after munich we took a train to freiburg which is a small town in the black forest (black forest cake, black forest ham, vineyards all around). it was really beautiful and the people were so friendly. in the market before we left we bough some apple and pear schnaaps for 6,50€...45 percent!! it was ridiculous. so robert and i drank the whole way to cologne and got succesfully pissed off hardly anything. fun as it was it made finding the hostel a bit more intresting..
cologne has the biggest catherdral in germany so were gonna check that out today along with a pop-art museum which should be cooooool.
thats all for me,
peaceee from the land of sausage
