Last night we stayed in Garmisch, where we got to sleep in bunkbeds! This morning it was raining. Again. However, we needed to do laundry, so we took the local bus (which is free to those who stay in the hostel) and did our own laundry in the town....it was quite an accomplishment since laundry in Europe is NOTHING like American laundry!
With that out of the way, we took the 1 hour train ride to Innsbruck and said goodbye to Germany for the next 2 weeks. Innsbruck is quite picturesque; surrounded by the Alps with a blue-green river running through the center, the buildings are all various colors with gold leaf signs and all sorts of paintings on them. I was hoping to go paragliding in the Alps, like I did back in 2001, but the weather is not great, and the cloud cover is too low - we are not going to pay €95 to see nothing but clouds!! We've been to visit the ski jump from the winter olmpics held here, and now we're headed to the unversity area. Tonight we plan to watch the World Cup Match, and then we get on a train to Budapest, where we'll stay through Saturday.
Sorry no pictures to attach, but since our computer is broken, it's too hard to upload them in the short amount of time we have the internet for. Maybe in Budapest!
Hope all is well back home! XOXO C & J
