Pelting along the Autobahn and the meeting of Max

We left Munich bright and early today and quickly found ourselves on the German Autobahn, which I have to say, I was expecting more from. I thought that it would be 4 lanes of cars that would just FLY past you, and yet, while you did have your fast cars and a certain amount of speed being...

Arrival and orientation

Well, nothing terribly exciting yet. I got into Trier yesterday and took a taxi to my dorms, and finally have my own room again. It's a really exciting thing.
