So apparently me and Germany liked to bump head. This last stop was the roughest of them all. Since the moment I landed nothing was really working out. I had very little cash on me and the ATM wouldn't take my card at the airport. I had not enough for a bus or taxi to get to Munich. So after talking with one taxi driver he agreed to take me to a hostel I booked in Ottobeuren. Ottobeuren is the smallest town you could possibly think of it was as cute as ever and I was so exhausted I ended up staying there for the 3 nights. So yes, I never made it to Munich like planned. But I did go to Füssen which was a pain in itself and public transportation in Germany kind of sucks to say the least. I got back into Memmingen at 9:00 the bus to Ottobeuren was schedule for 9:05. Perfect, right? Well no, the bus decided it was done for the night (I called after waiting 20mins) these very nice older German couples who were trying to help but barely spoke English after finding no Taxi her son then offered to drive to me Ottobeuren, I was honestly about to go because I was kind of stuck. But God knew better as we were walking to the car a taxi drove by I stopped him and got in. Then my and the taxi driver got lost in the smallest town you could imagine! Finally made it back to the hostel around 11:30 that night. Anyways then on Saturday morning I took the 4 hour journey into Frankfurt where my amazing friend Victoria was so kind to pick me up from the train station and then later drive me to the air port. So grateful of that! Over all as stressful as it was I don't regret any of it and it was a great journey to take and can not complain one bit. I am back in Venice and will be fore the next 2 months. Thank you all for your continued prayers and support through it all. Love each of you!
My 1st meal in Germany: schnitzel and potato salad very yummy didn't know what it was until I asked Victoria LOL!
More German food, breakfast and lunch
The baslica in Ottobeuren was the most detailed church I'd ever seen. Absolutely stunning. A traditional Bavarian church
A nice reminder in Füssen while waiting to see the castle :)
The stunning Schloss Neuschwanstein where Walt Disney got his inspriation for the Sleeping Beauty Castle and where parts of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was filmed.
Met some really sweet girls who were camp counselors for an "English" camp at the hostel I stayed at. They made me feel so awesome to be an American!
And lastly I said good riddance in Frankfurt as my flight was delayed over an hour due to a strike in Venice. I was glad to sleep in my own room last night and get some proper rest.
