On September 10, 2014, Mom, Becky, Deborah, and Micaiah dropped me off at the Windsor airport, where I met up with Grace Bauer, my travel companion and now, good friend. Sitting there, it kind of felt like standing on the edge of a proverbial cliff, arms spread wide, taking a deep breath. Time to fly. I’ve never left home like this before, and though I’d been planning this flight for about 2 years, I could hardly believe it was here. 6 months on my own. Wow.
Grace and I arrived in Munich in the morning of September 11, 2014, where our luggage took a very long time to find us, and then we were picked up by Achim’s friend Thomas, who flagged us down with the Canadian flag that my family had given him when he came for Leah and Achim’s wedding last summer. It was pretty great. :)
From the airport, we went to Dinzler (an AMMMMAAAAZING coffee shop), which if you’ve ever talked to me before, you’ve probably heard me mention… with a lot of exclamation points. I love that place! I took a couple of pictures, but not enough.
Then, on to Austria. Thomas dropped us off at Nike and Manfred’s house, where we spent the next 8 days; 8 of the most magical days of my life. Seriously, we were so spoiled, and I couldn’t be more thankful for all of the time, money, and love that those people poured into us. Every minute of it will be a treasured memory to me.
To go into all of the details, well, you’ll have to ask me in person when I come home. In the meantime, however, here are some pictures from Austria!
(Note: I was going to post most of my pictures on here, but I have decided, Facebook is faster and easier. And in the interest of staying away from my computer as much as possible, Facebook wins.)
