München…was soll ich mehr sagen?

Well last weekend was one of the coolest things I’ve done since I’ve been to Germany..I got to travel down to Munich to see Magdalena…but she didn’t have a clue. Oh yeah but first let me explain who the wonderful Magda is! In my 10th grade year she was one of the 2 exchange students from Germany in our school who was in band with us and everything. I got to become pretty good friends with her during that year and well I most definitely wanted to see her while I’m here in Germany. As I was saying…Magda had no idea that I was coming to see her…just like earlier that week she had no clue that Dallas and Jesse were coming too…hehe so we gave her quite a week of surprises! Anyways onto the wonderful weekend it was! It all started pretty early last friday…I had to wake up at 4 o’clock in the morning to get ready to go..since my flight took off at 6:30 I needed to be there an hour early and well…it all added up to waking up at 4, but it was most definitely worth it. The plane ride was really beautiful as well because at the start it was dark and I got to see the lights of Hamburg from above and then as we flew farther and farther towards the great destination the sun started to rise. I’ve gotta say if you haven’t sen the sun rise from a plane…well you’re missing out. It was so beautiful and then the beautiful lands of Germany below us were all white with snow..it was absolutely gorgeous.  So finally the plane landed in Munich and man was I excited!! Well after I got off the plane I have to admit I had a little trouble finding the exit because well it was confusing..but finally I got out of there and Magda’s mom was waiting for me…and we were off! The ride form the airport to her house was full of so much excitement I could hardly stay still..but as we drove by Allianz Areana (Home of FC Bayern München my favorite soccer team in the world)  I was struck with amazement at the awesomeness of the stadium..I had seen pictures and always thought it was cool but it’s definitely something else to see it in person! So finally after being amazed by the wonder and beauty of Allianz Areana the ride went on until we were finally there. Her mom said we’d go up and just ring the doorbell and let her answer the door so we went up the stairs and rang and we waited. The door finally opened and there she was…but she hadn’t seen me quite yet and then she looked over and bam…she started to what seemed to me was trembling and kept saying “too much…too much” so I’m guessing it was a big surprise…wait I know it was. It was so priceless that moment and it’s one I will NEVER forget. Unfortunately she had school that day so after the shocked was over we hung for just a short bit of time in her room with Jesse and Dallas and then she had to go. Well at this point I must say that of course it was totally awesome to see Jesse and Dallas too! To see two of my friends from back home and spend time with them in Germany was awesome and unbelievable! Since Magda was in school Her mom took Jesse, Dallas, and I down to the inner city to show me for the first time and to finally visit a FC Bayern Fanshop..hehe..it was really cool and pretty in the downtown area…after a while though Magda’s mom (Susanna) took us to the 2 hr. city tour bus…it showed us all of the important spots in Munich including the Olympic park and stuff..It was really cool and of course really pretty lol…afterwards we headed back to the house to meet back up with Magda and to get ready for the party. Now you’d think it would’ve been her birthday party since her birthday was that last monday…but no. I was told that she and her friends had decided to celebrate Christmas early and so on the last weekend of November we had Christmas at Magda’s with her friends. It was lotsa fun and well hopefully there’ll be some pictures up on my blog before too long of Munich and some of the party as well.

Saturday was awesome too….of course. We all (Magda and her family, Jesse, Dallas, and I) rode into the mountains and jeeeezums it was…words can’t describe how amazingly beautiful it was! We went on this really awesome trail thing through the mountains that was carve out of water like the Grand Canyon and it’s called Partnachklamm. I really couldn’t believe I was walking through something like what it was. It was like something you would see in a movie..sorta like in Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter…it was soooooooooo awesome and I’m soooooo happy that I go to go there and with Magda, Jesse, and Dallas…and don’t forget the rest of the (s)Kittls! After we made it all the way through the amazing partnachklamm we kept on journeying to the top of the mountain we were on to see Zugspitze with a good view of one of the old Kings summer houses…then we ate at a restaurant with that amazing view the whole time. It was really amazing…and I know I’ve used that word a million times…but hey…it works. After our amazing dinner we headed back towards Munich and Magda’s. It was on the way back that I found out that a lot of my close friends actually do read my blog…including Magda…so this one might be an awkward one for you to read Magda…hehe. It’s really cool to know that people actually do read my blogs and find them..somewhat interesting because well to my knowledge you keep reading them… at least my friends. Anyhow, once we were back we rested a while and chatted and sorts until Magda’s bestie Caro came over to hang with us..and then shortly after Simon (Magda’s bro) had finished cooking our dinner and so we all went and ate. (Btw Magda do tell your bro the food was really good your mom too! ;D ) Afterwards we took a while to decide what we were gonna do but we finally decided to go out for a lovely ice cream which proved to be an adventure itself. First we went to find the ice cream shop Magda knew about and well..it took a while and by the time we found it..well they were closed. So then we had to go all the way back in the opposite direction to another ice cream shop that was opened…but none-the-less it was some good ice cream. That was mainly our saturday night…I did go out later with Caro to a club and well it was a club so we danced and of course that was a lot of fun too.

Sadly the next day was short since my flight was so early so I basically got up packed and did the morning stuff and then we all drove off to the airport. It was such an awesome weekend…but it was much much too short and I wish I could’ve stayed there for an entire week…or more…but atleast I got to go and see Magda, Jesse and Dallas and everyone else. I really really really enjoyed it and I can’t thank Magda and her family enough for being so awesome and allowing me to stay there for the weekend!! Thanks you guys you are totally amazing!!!!

As for now almost a week later…well nothing much has happened. I have done some christmas shopping in Hamburg and stuff but thats about it…oh and it snowed…again. SO yeah it’s just the usual life here..the one that I absolutely love . I seriously have never been this happy in my life! Anyways..I think this wraps it up for now! Sure there’ll be plenty more this month since it’s the holiday season!

Late Happy Turkey Day also to my American peeps!
