In Route from Germany...
I am, at this moment, on a plane over the Atlantic. I am in the middle seat, which I had both ways, and I am 4 hours into a 9 hour journey. The woman in front of me has her seat ALL the way down, so I am cramped, and can either type and hope I make no mistakes, or see my screen. Because of the angle, I really can’t do both at the same time.So much for the unpleasant stuff.
The trip itself has been great! The weather sucked for most of it, but that was ok. We were at events held by the company whose open house we were attending for most of it, although we had some time yesterday to wander around Munich on our own. That rocked. I never thought I would ever get to go once, much less go back again less than a year after the first time. It was a bit surreal to tell you the truth!
We wandered around the city in the rain and took lots of pictures, and actually took the time to do some leisurely shopping, both window and actual. I bought far too much chocolate. Fortunately, most of it will go to others as gifts.
We also made it to one of the museums, as well as hit a few locations we missed last time. It was a lot of fun, despite the cold, since we were able to be a bit more casual about it. Last time we were trying to cram as much as possible into just a few days. This time, we didn’t have to hit it all.
I must admit, I am feeling pretty jet lagged at this point. I was there just long enough to get to the point where I was able to get some decent sleep last night, and now I am heading back again, to another time zone. Considering Munich was 7 hours ahead, that is pretty significant. I will be awake tomorrow morning, but I am not sure how long I will last. We shall see, and everyone can make fun of me to your hearts’ content when I am falling asleep at 3 or 4 in the afternoon.
Now, you may be wondering how I am able to post this from about 30,000 feet up. Well, Luftansa, my airline, is the first to offer on-board wireless access. Heaven. I just wish my battery life was longer!
Anyway, I will see everyone when I get back!
