2017 Germany Trip #1- April 2nd

Back-Story

It's been a while since I've written on this blog, and I had my reasons.
I was lazy unlike Ksenia who has occasionally posted every so often. So hi, I'm back.

We had been planning on going on a trip during this easter break for awhile and decided on Germany for many a reasons, but the biggest being......Ksenia wanted to. 
Consequently Ksenia plans everything cause she's so good at these things (and I have no skillz)
After weeks of dreadful examinations, tests, coursework, and lecturers blabbering on...
IT'S FINALLY EASTER and here we go~.....?

I got off a week earlier than Ksen so I stayed at her place for almost a week to wait till she was done (yay us). And NOW we go ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Off We Levitate(in a metal cylindar) to Stuttgart!

April 2nd 2017
We leave Ksen's accommodations in the (too early for me) morning to Manchester Airport
As a result we arrive 2 hours before our promised departure time (like the civilized people we are)

Both of us in a starving state, we walk through terminal 3 looking for breakfast, and we end up at this restaurant called 'trattoria milano'. It sounds Italian right? Well they sell English breakfast so you make the call. I think Ksen wanted a  before picture but....we were too hungry so here's the aftermath:


Now we just wait for RyanAir to announce the gate we should be at.....
Flight FR3246 RyanAir, Manchester to Stuttgart, Departing at 12:30....12:35.....12:37.....12:54...
Eventually, gate 46 is announced so we slowly make our way that way. There were SO many people. 
Ksen decided to sit down while I stood and waited till we could board our plane (traitor XD )



Boarded the plane, the flight was decent, then comes the landing....
This captain needs some revision classes on smooth landings because the second we touched the ground everyone pretty much jumped cause of the wheels smashing onto the ground XD
Moral of this anecdote, not all pilots are created equal...to say the least.

And like that HELLO GERMANY~~

Post-Flight Journey

The first thing we had to do was visit Ksen's grand to get the keys to her house.
This lead us to go on the S3 train from the airport to the main station, Hauptbahnhof



So that was nice, always interesting to see different hospitals...i guess?
After the short family reunion, Ksen gave her grandma the gift I got for her we slowly headed to her house to ditch our stuff for the day. 

We had ice-cream and sandwiches on the way, but since I do not have photos of either of these 2 things I'll act like it didn't happen in this blog. Cause it's not fun without photos is it? XD

Due to a classified(?) we weren't really hungry for dinner so we decided to go on a short walk in a close by park. By this point the sun had set so our cameras were pretty much useless, either way enjoy the somewhat creepy pictures: 

Always capturing the best...thanks Ksen.




And now we sleep cause we are boring.
