ok . i am gonna type abt my trip to germany.. if u haf no time.. dun read ;D.. its very long.. trust me

1st day

There were hardly any singaporeans in the plane.. or rather.. asians.. it felt strange.. as if i was going to approach an alien world. Took 17 hours to reach the german airport... 2hrs of flight to thailand.. 4 hours while waiting for the transit and 11 hrs of flight to germany. Reached there abt 7+.. well.. singapore time is 7hrs ahead of germany. When we reached the airport. Uncle Hans came to fetch us.. it was freezing when we came out of the airport.. we shld haf wore some thick clothing in the plane... heading to Munich in the car.. my eyes were like @_@. This was due to the uncomfortable position i had to slp while in the plane.. stupid chair *(!@. In the car.. i noticed that the steering wheel was at the left side instead of the right.... the carpark building near the airport are made of steel.. making it look high tech.. wat a beautiful place..

2nd day
Woke up at 0630. which is 1330 in sg... -_- horrible slping time. Went down to haf breakfast at the small hotel where we are suppose to live in for 2 wks and 2 days. The buffet for the breakfast does not haf much variety.. abt only 5 kinds of food. but i enjoyed it... bread, cereal,ham,cheese,cake and desert. ok 6 kinds.. the cake looks like fruit cake but taste like powedered chocolate... sweet..and yup i am not staying in my aunt's house.cos they have only a double bed.. so my parents had to stay over with them. -_-... starting to haf running nose. its was until yesterday i found out i inherited the motion sickness and the another sickness from my father. During the landing of the plane. my ears will be extremely painful and would feel as though they are abt to burst..... okok back to wats important..... went to marineplatz. and visit the 2 church that are famous and on of the big departmental stores.. wow.. i had the santa hat for S$1!... heheheh.. During the tour there.. i saw many ppl wearing hats.. had to buy one too to keep my ears frm freezing.. >_<... On the escalator.. we had to keep right to make ppl pass thru if they are in a hurry.at 1205.. we are able to see the dolls turning at the tower.. forgot wats the the tower called.. and at 1210.. the dolls below would dance.. cool..soon we are told to beware of pickpockets by my aunt .-. ... hmm well nthin is lost so far.. so its ok! .. soon after.. we went to eat lunch at macs. they haf interesting things such as slotting your trays with rubbish after eating and the packaging of the food is in boxes.. even the burgers! So it is easier to eat.. further more.. the fries are not SALTY.... remind me to tell everyone nvr to go singapore's mac's. However.. most shops there do not except visa and only accept cash.esp the hotel. the hotel has also no hot water and shampoo.... the tv only show german programmes except for mtv.... before going out.. we haf to hairdry our hair too.. =/ dry weather.. in the afternoon we saw a que.. they were queing to vote in order to prevent the forrest from being cut down and use for commercial purposes... would singapore do the same?i wonder .during the evening.. Aunt cook spaghetti for us.. dont mind to eat it everyday.. it was fantastic!.. it is better than wat my mum cooked .. ate 2 plates.. Yum! I felt guilty.. we seem to ask too much .... for almost every destination.. we had to ask for directions. the standard of living there is high. found out one filet o fish in macs cos s$4.. just for the burger... gee i do wonder.. 3rd day Woke up late.. abt 0830.. my phone batt is getting low.. guess no alarm clock for tmr.. lol.. the weather seems to be colder.. cant wait for it to snow >_<.. my bro say nxt wk.. nxt wk nxt wk!!!>. i want to make a snowman!Setting off we went to the lake where there were lots of birds.. there were many ppl taking their dogs out for a walk too!..^_^ cute. The Roads there are quiet.. not many buses come by.. the tram looks cool too.. better than sg's.. slow and noisy.. ok if the driver speeds in sg >_> its fast and noisy.. My bro says germany's weather is much colder than korea's.... i dun remember.. lolx... went to macs again.. father is complaining.. bet he never noticed that the food here in macs taste better than sg's... even the icecream too.. looking around.. i noticed that the germans are very tall.. furthermove they are either yandaos or chiobus.. make me feel short and ugly >_<... the trains are cute too.. the doors are not automatic.. we haf to etiher push the button or pull the handle in order to open the door.. animals are also allowed in the train.. the escalators at the train station are interesting too.. where there is no one at the end of the escalator i would step at the end and watch the escalator change direction.. :D hiak hiak... after that.. we headed for the gardens... there were many trees and rivers.. it was really beautiful.. i could nvr find a place like this in sg.. we went to up to the " chinese pavillion" it doesnt look chinese... and took a picture of a part of town frm there... the place had been vandalised badly.. .. after that we went to the lake.. there were many swans.. goose, ducks and stocks... we took a picture of birds crossing the road... moving on we went to the olympia stadium... it was huge!.. i also found out that i could tok without getting thirsty.. cool.. the power of cold! wahahha... we also went to the 5 soccer arena and saw ppl playing there.. its an indoor soccer court..in the evening we head back for dinner again.. this time its rice and 2 dishes for 8 ppl O.o..but it was fantastic.. the soup was nice too...after dinner.. we played taboo.. it was funny listening to my father explaining while there are some words he just cant pronounce.. :D.... the days in germany were short and the nights are long... nice... my way of life.
