Day 29 - Geneva to Munich

14.37 - Up at 5am, packed up and on the tram by 6am. We were surprisingly alert for this time of the morning. When we arrived at the station we got a well deserved coffee. This backpack is getting heavier and I think I'm going to cry the next time I have to put it on. I think I might just be too small for it, as I had pins and needles in both arms whilst carrying it today. First train to Basel was ok, we got on at the right time tho, any later and we wouldnt have got a seat and there would have been murder.

We got off at Basel and had 17mins to get on the next train. This was a doddle. We found ourselves in the bahn.comfort carriage living the life and drinking coffee. Think we may have needed reservations for these seats but the nice ticket man didn't ask. He must have seen the list of journeys on our ticket route planner and felt sorry for us. We arrived at Karlsruhe and had 6mins to get on the third train. As we got off, an old lady nearly pushed me out of the door. I was not happy. Then as we got to the platform for the next train, the same rude old lady ran her suitcase into my leg. We did not speak the same language, but from the tone of her voice, the look on my face was enough to let her know I was livid. She said something to me in German and ran away. She wasn't even really an old lady to be honest, I just don't like her. This third and final train to Munich is very retro. I've still managed to have a decent nap, eat my butties and catch up on my blog tho. Fingers crossed when we get to the hostel we have wifi.

16.41 - hostel has wifi! It's called Jaegers Hostel and we get free shots at the bar. I'm liking Munich already. Going to get sorted and find food. We have booked an extra night in Brussels for 20th so we won't be sleeping on the platform. We are thinking of doing a day trip to Bruges seeing as we have an extra day in Belgium. Off to look for food now. More specifically, steins and bratwurst. Munich is my kind of place.

Ps, mother I hope you are happy now my blog is updated. I know you were having withdrawal symptoms from my prose.
