Neuschwanstein Castle
We arrived in Munich on the 14th, absolutely exhausted and pretty on edge. The train rides aren't bad, but they take so much energy with our huge backpacks and bags, that they just end up completely draining you before we arrive anywhere. Munich is nice; German is untranslatable to us, the culture is alien and the city is understated compared to the rest of the famed spots we've visited, but it may have been exactly what we needed.
At this point we are more than halfway through our journey and starting to run out of juice. Ahead of us is Italy and we leave a mess of cities behind us. Yesterday we went out through the countryside to see this beautiful castle, and that was honestly about all we did over the last 72 hours. I'm sitting in the hostel lobby waiting until our train leaves at 9PM (We're taking a night train and checkout was at 10AM, it's not 10:51AM) and almost basking in the thought of not doing a thing all day. I could sit here with my coffee, walk around, and just watch everything around me while being completely content. Tonight our beds will be train seats. Tomorrow we'll be in Italy, and the whirlwind will ensue. But today, I'm just going to sit and watch the day unfold.
