Munich, Germany

I got into Munich around 11 pm and luckily my hostel was right next to the train station. After one night there I moved in with Tina who I know from Truman. She's been studying abroad here for a semester and because their semesters are offset by a couple of months, she's still in classes. I can't say I love Munich as much as I did prague. Their unrealistic affinity for beer is amazing. On my second day I was already tipsy before noon. At this point I feel like I've given all their beers a fair shot, and I still don't like them. The only thing I haven't tried yet that I want to is a drink called a Radler.
I finally broke down yesterday and bought a new camera. Mine is still coming to Tina and she will be able to give it back to me when she comes back to the US, but I was sick of waiting for it to catch up with me. Now I'll actually be able to take pictures of things again.
Yesterday I went on a walking tour with some people who I knew from my internship last summer. I hadn't seen them in a year, so that was a nice reunion. After the tour I had two hours to kill until the US Algeria game. There was a really nice park in the middle of the city so I decided to go there and listen to some music. I ended up falling asleep and missing the first 10 minutes of the game. Which, if you watched it, wasn't missing much.
Today I'm on a quest to restock shampoo, conditioner and contact solution. I'm also going to see if I can find some pants that actually fit, so I don't have to hold them up while I walk.
