T-Rex and Co

Just realised I haven't blogged in ages!

Anways, thought I'd blog about my German adventure. what a trip! I really wish I we extended out trip as it was a real great experience.

Analise and I ( from now on in this blog she will either be referred to and Trex or Anal for memories sake) departed on Thursday at 2.30 pm. The following is a brief outline of out trip.

Thursday:

After no doubt giving the impression that we were a couple, the air hostess (who's a colleague of mine) brought us two bottles of champagne , 7 vodka and a couple of soft drinks for our stay in Germany, all free of charge! We got club class treatment ! The idea of a ziblata began brewing....

c. 5 pm arrive in Zurich - we had approx 3 mins to buy the train tickets. Due to the punctuality of German trains we obviously missed the train to konstanz and while waiting for the next train we began wondering whether we had ended up at the wrong place since it was called flughafen. some moments after searching for the flughafen town we realised that flughafen does in fact mean air port!

c. 6 30 pm arrive in konstanz. We caught a glimpse of Matt and Mike waiting at the station . OK we were in the right place! After pulling T rex's lime green, massive, carpisa luggage off the train we deposited our luggages and went round Konstanz. We ended up at this really posh bar where there was this amazing live band playing.

Day 2:

Spent the night with Mike while Analise spent it with Matt. After our doctors to be hurried off to work for the morning , T-rex and Co ventured to Konstanz ...alone.... yes alone (and we didn't get lost!) After a shopping spree we met Mat and Mike to purchase groceries and of course our lovely enamel, 20 euro pasta borma. Back at the apartment I made muffins and Fortnumn and Mason earl grey tea and Pasta ammatricciana for supper! We spent the evening watching Anal's rather raunchy films.

Day 3

After a good night's sleep made Matt b'fast in bed. We then spent the day in Zurich with Chris! Amazing place! This is where the purchase of my levis drainpipes (which Mike hasn't stopped teasing me about) occurred. The toilets in MC Donald's in Zurich have a code to enter! Fancy stuff... i think i should spare you the rest of the details for those of you who don't already know.

In the evening we returned to Konstanz, played drinking games with Chris and proceeded to the flat where we consumed some of our airline drinks. T rex traumatised Matt by making water sounds when he was in need of a loo.

Day 4

Woke up at 11! Lazed about, made everyone b'fast. Went to Mass in German (quite an experience). sat by lake Constance with a guitar.

Day 5

Woke up at 6. Lots of tears and hugs since we were leaving. After Mike and Matt left for work, T rex and I packed, wrote a thanks you letter to M&M and left for Konstanz with lime green, carpisa and my over weight d&n luggage. After going round the town till our train to the airport was due we realised that we had in fact booked the wrong train. After long arguments we did realise that the train did end up in Zurich though it had a connection! We were soon back at Flughafen where we came from.

What a great trip :D:D:D

hope my travel diary didn't bore you :P
