We flew out of MN at 9:15 at night. The first thing I did was break my watch at security. The scanner beeped at me because I had forgotten to take it off. I took it off and either broke it there or had earlier. The watch still works but if it unlatches then it will fall off completely, and I'm expecting it to fall off at a very bad time and lose it.
Anyway, on the plane I had an aisle seat and sat next to a guy from Fresno, California. Spencer and Jake were right across the aisle from me. It was a 7 hour flight and I slept for about an hour and a half. Most of the people I talked to got less sleep, and many of them didn't sleep at all. I watched Gran Torino, which was pretty good. When we finally got we went through security again and got on the plane to Frankfurt Germany. I slept through this entire flight, but the stewardess bumped into me every time she went past and woke me up. They gave us food but I fell asleep before I could eat it. Once we landed we took a couple of trains to the main Frankfurt train station and then went to Gelnhausen.
We were all in rooms of 2 and I was with Jesse. Most of the rooms were slightly different and of all the ones I saw, ours was the worst. The whole group went out to eat at a German restaurant. I had something called Swaebische Spaetzlepfanne, which is egg noodles with a ton of bacon on it. It was good but it was also very salty. They don't drink water with their meals so I ordered a Fanta. All I got was a .2L glass which is about 7 ounces. Everybody was super thirsty so we all went back to the hotel and drank several glasses of tap water.
We went on a walk for about a half hour then we all got our Euros from an ATM. I took out 200 because I know that there will be a fee every time I take out money. I wish I knew what the exchange rate was but I don't have any access to the internet. Then we all went back to the hotel and finally got some sleep.
