Day: 316 I woke up this morning with full intent to follow out the plan I made yesterday. Fortunately the world conspired against me. No room at the hostel in the forest, no one answered the phone at the hostel in Regensburg. Frustrated, because all the trains were leaving soon, I hit the internet cafe [...]

Day: 315 Well, I thought, I like beer, and I like flesh, so why not order something named bierfleisch? After a day of doing chores, sleeping in, napping, taking pictures and trying to plan my next Bavarian move, I had decided to treat myself to a nicer dinner. This is exactly what Aaron was trying [...]

Day: 314 I heard his alarm go off…. Damn 3:30am already. I had told my brother I would walk with him down to the train station to see him off on what I had been grooming him for all week. Solo travel. Aaron’s mission was to somehow manage to get from Salzburg, Austria, transfer trains [...]

Day: 313 As far as offensive titles go, my trip up to Eagles Nest in Berchtesgaden forced me to hang out in Hiltler’s shadow. At first the shadow was all we thought we’d get. It was supposed to look like this, but all we saw was fog. Eventually I found the panorama map so I [...]

Day: 312 Copious amounts of beer lead to the need for relaxation, unfortunately when that form of relaxation comes in the form of copious amounts of beer in another country, it doesn’t really help. The Point of this tale… This morning my eyes creaked open and glanced at my watch, 9:19am, Good, if I pay [...]

Day: 311 “Trains make traveling in Europe so easy.” Anyone whose been around has heard it at least once, I am sure it has passed my lips on a number of occasions. Our two hour trip from Munich turned into a disaster, when the first train we were supposed to be on was canceled, and [...]

Day: 310 Please indulge me in my lack of creativity when it comes to my naming of these posts. “Prost!” Just seems to be the most used word for the last couple of days and I just thought I’d follow suit. With a night for which we planned to be the setting for our hardest [...]

Day: 308 With excessive amounts of drinking planned, I haven’t been carrying my camera with me into the festival yesterday or today. So my apologizes for the sub-par pictures. Have hope though! Tomorrow I am going for a beer-free (ok, maybe one) day just to take a bunch of pictures. So tomorrow will most likely [...]

Day: 307 Feeling a little rough today; watch the video to understand why. Aaron and I spent the morning meandering through Wurzburg, before catching the cheap train to Munich and finding our apartment that I rented for the next four nights. We paid the lady and called my friend Chris (a Munich native, who I [...]
