Happy New Year/Germany

Happy New Year everyone! After spending three weeks being fattened up by parents, I am now on the move again, heading ever so slowly for summer and Wellington. Xmas was nice, with all the food that I have missed, good prezzies and family and friends. No internet at home has made me a rather slow blogger, though.

I am now in Germany, visiting Manuel in Großstadt Polling. It's a small place, close to a bigger place called Mühldorf. Germany is nice, there's a lot of history to be seen here; castles, lots of old churches, old houses... and so on and so forth. I quite like it. It was a bit hard for my brain to follow all the German gibberish at first, but now it's a lot more like a language to me. :) I must sayy, Bavarian German is not exactly book-german. But it's a cool dialect. Time has gone by so quickly here, and already in a few days I'm flying off again. Unbelievable. I suspect that staying here for a while would to wonders for my learning.. something to think about.
So, these days I've spent travelling around Bavaria with Manu, I've been to München, Salzburg, Regensburg, Burghausen - where they have the longes castle in Europe -, Mühldorf... I think that's all for now? Hm. And tomorrow I am not sure what's up yet. Maybe opera in München, maybe a castle somewhere. We'll see. Elisabeth is coming here tomorrow, so we'll be a small Welli-gang here in Mühldorf.. :) Will be nice to see her again, won't have the chance to do that in Welli now. Gonna be a crazy night tomorrow! Wuhu!Click on the collage to see it in a bigger version!
