so i'm in patras, greece. largest city here next to athens. we spent all day yesterday and today on the most glorious beaches, possibly ever..
so what else to say?? i've been so busy enjoying life and being absolutely overwhelmed with everything that i have had no time to post on the blog i was absolutely fanatical about before i left! sorry for that. :) anyways, i'll try and do a quick run through of the past couple days.. on friday afternoon we went to cindy's parents place for a tradition german feast.. schnitzel and schpezal! it was awesome. and her family is wonderful. we spent the night there and headed down to lake constance to pick up dani, then into munich to meet up with carina! we spent saturday and sunday night with her, then caught our flight to athens monday morning.. we found this thing called "couch surfing" so we've been staying here for free in this guys apartment (i promise, its not sketchy..) he has been an awesome host and hooked us up with directions to these beaches (the one yesterday was pretty secluded..) i can't get enough of it. theres guardian angels looking over us for sure, even if i believed in luck i don't think it could be this good.. i have so many stories to share, but not enough time! so i'll talk your ears off when i get home. love you all. xoxo.

so after spending sunday sleeping off the time difference and checking the sights around trier we just chilled with agneta and then headed into luxembourg on monday. we didnt do a lot but it was just an amusing day.. stacy got us kicked out of a restaurant.. haha kind of long story but definitely funny because we didnt actually know what she was saying at first.. we spent the night again with agneta then kept on to heidelburg for the day on tuesday, then met up with my friend cindy in ludwigburg! i missed her. its been a sweet past couple days with her and her boyfriend.. today we were in ulm with another girl, christine. we went for sushi. yes i know its europe.. but regardless.. that will be the last time i do that. fish and seaweed really are just not for me. i always thought i was so tough (because well, i am..) but apparently not my stomach.. otherwise things are absolutely fantastic.

so were here in trier germany. after spending the night in montreal where we saw lots of cool stuff and met some cool people, we landed in frankfurt, germany. being the expert travellers we are, we had no trouble with the trains (and im actually being serious.. even though if you knew me, youd know how awesome i am with directions..) we made our way down to trier and met my friend agneta here. i was super jet lagged and had probably the best nap ever after being up for almost 30 hours.. then went to a birthday party in mayen (taking the "autobahn" highway = no speed limit!) lets just say it was an experience. [and we should have them in canada.] so today we did some sightseeing and are heading into luxembourg tomorrow. life is good.

shout out to all the moms today. they deserve a lot more recognition than we give them the majority of the time..
