Since we have been up for 32 hours straight this is gonna be a short one as the first one usually is. For those that may not know, the trick to beating jet leg is to deprive yourself of sleep. Kidding but not really. We landed here at 11p cst but it was 6a Germany time. To not waste days with jet leg, we planned a full day with driving and hiking keeping us awake as long as possible. We will now head to bed giving us more than 8 hrs of sleep and also sleeping when it’s dark here.
We’ve officially checked two more countries off our bucket list already… Germany and Luxembourg. I’m hoping a few pictures will be posted however I’m not confident that the post is going to even go live with the shotty internet connection I have. But they will be posted once we are able to.
In both places, I’ve officially experienced what so many people worry about… Not knowing the language and being absolutely useless. German is so different, and we just flounder through. But so far we’ve not gotten ourselves in any trouble… Yet.
Ps. If you ever get the chance to have a connection through Toronto, do it! They have vending machines that you can buy iPads and every waiting seat has a complimentary iPad to use while you wait. Very modern and high tech…right up our alley.
