FIRST DAYS IN GERMANY

I had my first 2 days in Germany!!
They were amaying. Starting with my flights, i actually had good luck, and did not miss any of them!! When i saw we hadreached europe, and were beginning to land in Germany, i was so excited!!! It took me a little while to find my luggage, but i found it eventually. Once i found my luggage, i went through the gate to my host family.
My host family had a sign sazing "Welcome Destiny" so i knew it was them. I then greeted them, and began my trip. I went on the bus station, and eventually found the car. Once we were in the car, i had a chance to talk to my hosts a little more. They are very very very nice! I reallllllly like them a lot! I also had my first experience on the Autobahn...very very very fast highway!!!!!!!!!!! We then stopped at the local Rathaus( City Hall) where i became a registered person!!!!! =)
From there, we stopped at he Metzgerei und Bäcker (butcher shop, and Bakery) i had my first taste of wurst!!! It was pretty good!
We then went to the Hause, and i was able to see it for the first time. Their home is absolutely beautiful., both inside and outside!!! I was shown my bedroom,which is beautiful, and the bathroom. Which has a 3-d picture of Ariel, from the Little Mermaid!! It is amazing!!!!!!!!
We then went down and had breakfast. My host moms mom came over for Breakfast as well. I had my first taste of Nutella, which is veryyyy chocaltely! =)
From there, i was asked f i would mind going to Munich for my first night, i of course said no. So, about an hour later, we were taking a 5hr hour drive, to our hotel in Munich. I slept the entire wa to Munich, but woke up oncewe arrived.
My host parents then took me sight seeing. =) The city of Munich is beautiful!!!!!!!!! I took many many pictures! I visited many different places, including theHofbräuhaus, which is a famous Bavarian beer brewery. And yes, i had my first taste of beer....I must say, it is a very interesting taste, but i think i like it. My host parents thought it was funny this was the first time i had ever tasted it, i couldnt finish the entire liter, after about half, i couldnt finish anymore. . I then had my first tasteof Wurst. It was pretty good. We spent all day in the city! My host parents even bought me a t-shirt from the Hardrock Cafe, in Munich. =) We went back to the hotel, and i immediatly went to sleep. The next morning we had breakfast, and again went touring. I was also able to see my host mother, Martina, buy a drindll (sp?) it is a bavarain dress, used at Oktoberfest. =)
We then came back to my city around 9pm, where i went to my first birthday party!!! It was awesome!
Those were my first few days, now i am going to head to bed, because i am veryyyyyy tired. But i am having an amazing tim here!!!!!!!
