Ways of Travel

I have traveled by more ways of transportation in the past week than I have ever in my whole life.
I recently just got back from Spain and truly wish I was still there. The culture, the food, every building and the crumbling roads. Beautiful and divine.

Here are a few ways of travel I have taken lately...

Plane: The Black Horizon. Leaving Spain Behind.

Plane: The Pyrenees

Bus: €2,40

Walking: One of the best ways to travel.

Train: Seeing the country in one linear line.

Train: Stations

Train: Voltage

Train: Destinations

Walking: Watching the sun set in Herrnhut.

Mission: Mainz.

http://www.allgemeine-zeitung.de/region/mainz/meldungen/10901608.htm

I'm in Mainz sitting on the ground floor of a friends flat. Actually it's owned by a church, however there are about 13 of us sleeping in one room. Windows are open, the train station across the street. It can be quite loud, but it feels great...

The past couple of days on tour we've played at an Irish Pub and Berliner, a nice little bar in Frankfurt am Main. The Irish Pub was great. I honestly felt like I was back in the states which was suppper weird considering I'm in Germany and that the band playing was both German, AND covering the Doors... Interesting night for sure. Meeting people from all over, people who can speak 3-7 languages. Learning more German. Driving a Voltwagon Van in Mainz. Food is great here. Also, you can buy a 1,5 Liter bottle of water for €0.19. and an Ice Cream cones for €0.90. I can eat a nice meal for about €3.00-4.50 too.
So water: Water is interesting to purchase. In Germany you don't just ask for water and get water... There is water with gas and without... (Sparkling water and still water...) and THEN there is Tap water.
Sparkling, Wasser mit Kohlensäure... Still (my favorite) is Wasser ohne Kohlensäure and then tap water is called Leitungswasser...
Mit meaning with and Ohne meaning without.

Hanging with the band has been lovely. I love these people, so naturally, it's been a blast.

Missing people at home ;)
Loving the cities here.

as Soon as I get back to Hernnhut things will be less hectic, finally ill be able to start writing to you all, posting more in depth blogs and relaxing...

love you all. :)

A parade of photos. Day One.

On a 7 hour plane ride to Frankfurt. Actually wasn't too bad until Sean let me know I could ask for seconds for food... -_-
Ok some pictures skipped down to the bottom, but this is a little shop in the Frankfurt Airport where I finally picked up a German dictionary for vocab, a postcard for my darling in Orlando, and some Haribo Juice Gummy Bears. Gummy Bears

Waiting in the DeutschBahn train information line to get a train ticket even though i know how to use the little digital ticket purchase kiosks... it was confusing since there were the long-distance trains and regional... 

This is me sitting inside a train at as you can see... Frankfurt am Main Hbf (Hauptbahnhof)

I was tired and forget where this was ha.

Like I said, i was tired...
Coming into Dresden? All I know is this is beautiful...

Houses passing by. The homes and villages are beautiful.









My train into Dresden Hbf was 30 minutes late so I missed my train from Dresden to Löbau(Sachs) :/ Had to run around figuring it out until I just went to a kiosk and bought a new ticket... Arrived in Löbau at 21:11...
Sean and I at Döner. Eating Döner for the first time! Place is awesome...

Wine I had on the plane from Montreal to Frankfurt. FREE.

My meal on the plane.


More pictures and explanation to come, but I'm hungry!
