We have had no wifi for a couple of days so need a carch up. Cant backtrack or lose connection so not sure what I've said previously. So semi short version....train late from Paris so we list/missed reserved connection in Mannheim...good ol' Octoberfest has blasted chances of getting any replacement reservations to Munich, so had an interesting time with the ticket agent trying to get us on a train. We had choices.... One person go on next train with three following an hour after that OR an even later one than that we can all go but no reservations on first leg and confirmed seats on second leg into Munich. Not too bad to stand fir the first hour if need be i guess! Only problem with that scenario was that two if us were in the first train separated by an attached engine and the ither two in the back if second train... And only one ticket for all four! Sue and Terry had to keep fingers and all other apendages crossed that their photocopies and explanations of train trouble would keep them from being thrown from the train!!! They did have hassle but guess they must not have looked like criminals because they were allowed to stay on board... Whew! Catastrophy averted! We also got a seat so no standing. Love that ticket agent. She did us good!
Our trip from the station to our hotel was fun as we had ' Mario Andretti' behind the wheel! He must gave wanted to get back ti the station because he literally took our life in his hands with the trip!!!!
Hotel we booked was fantastic. One of the nicest hotels we have ever been in and considering its octoberfest a VERY goodvalue! Thank you Sue!!! Certainly the best service in a restaurant. Bar non a five star.!
We had good tutaledge on traversing the underground on our trip so as old pros we made our way todowntown to experience the sights of this beautiful city! I could come back here no problem! Very clean and comfirtable and the people are charming!
Some if the best food we've had on the trip and like i said ... The service was white glove
I'm sad to go home but excited as well. The kids are coming to stay after we get home and i cant want to see Mason. Havnt seen him since June and want to see Jen and Ryan as well. Miss them all! Will be so good to catch up and get our hugs in!
Until we meet again! From Munich...
