Lisboa to Munchen

Seems like i just left Portugal in Feb to find my self over using Abregaro to answer the locals in appreciation. After a spending 5 days in toronto for a friends wedding i headed to london via Air Canada. Of course the service was bad, blah blah blah. Whats new. Anyways many hours at the various aiports and 20 hours of sleeplessness i walk up four flights of stairs to a lovely little hostel in the heart of Portugal. Met stephanie a portugese born in toronto, out of breatch from the climb up the stairs i checked in and took a shower an nap. Washrooms here have plumbing issues and apparently the garbage shoudl be used to dispose of stuff. Yuk , multiflushing is the way to avoid this but dont tell the hostel.

Nap is up , my cuz and his gf come to the hostel and we head out on the town. We went to an area with lots of narrow streets and bars and little pubs along the way. Lots of street loitering. Portugese buns, some pasta , great food, and the walk back to Lisbonense shoe store where our hostel is above.

Lisbon has a small jamat but all of Spain and Italy were here to celebrate the golden jubilee. Full day of food and sitting , movies, dancing , line dancing (yes there were some canadians we met there who decided to show portugal how canadians do raas, was 10 of us in total). Great night of wholesome partying, raas style. Breakfast was had at Rossio enjoying fine portugese coffee and pastries.

Munchen

A couple of delayz and 8 hours of travelling i find my self in Munich. Marienplatz is where i met a friend of mine from mba dayz. we promptly went home and finished the bottle of port i imported from portugal the land of port. we checked out the university area. Todaz is friday after sleeping in we went to the market for some food, great seafood here. WE then headed to Marienplatz for a beer at a plaza, wow german beer is good, much better then the north american stuff. Checked out the fountain at Karlzplatz where the local run in to cool off, around 25 degrees here. Went up the 14 story tower of St Joseph Catedrel to get a view of the city. Tried to go the Deuth museum but it was closed. I will head back home now, but we look to get into some good fun tonite in downtown. It is Fritak afterall and we need to Feel eshpas. dont have shy kelty so need to take it easy to keep kelt for the rest of the trip. zamestak will be spent looking at the rest of the sights and meeting a local(who i met at the airport) at night to catch a german movie. she doesnt speek english and i dont speak duetch, so should be fun. On zontak i meet my buddy in berlin so until then chow chow and denke for listening. i will have a brew for you...
