Germany here we come!!!


Has been a long time!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sorry i have been so lazy in updating my life:> Lots has been happening I have been really busy with work n stuff..


Anyway, finally we are back on trip again!!! My last holidays was only like 3months ago but it was like forever ago!!


Germany was choosen in this cold winter month mainly for the xmas market n the ever attractive cuckoo clock:>



and the best thing is WE GOT OURSLEF A DRIVER!!!!! He he.. the idea of driving thru black forest during the winter months properly is the craziest idea of all!! But hei!!! that what we want!!! SNOW!!!



The arrival at the airport was kinda confusing, being the airport located at the middle of 3 countries- switzerland, germany and france.. the call it Basel-freiburg-mulhouse international, and we got out form the germany site, then we figured it will be much faster for us to get to freiburg by going into switzerland site and took a train from there.. so we entered the swiss site again..after all the moving n hopping around the two countries, finally we settled at the freiburg train station n waiting for our car!!(So tecnically we actually been to switzerland as well:>)

At the rental station we were joking that they might give us an mercedez benz.. n yes we got one, not the model that I was hoping for but is good enuf:>

Also we got ourselve a TOMTOM!!! Poor tom tom has to constantly recalculate the journey for us:> I am still not quite sure that having tom tom was a better idea than reading map, I always enjoy the process of looking for places through map, Tom Tom save u the trouble but u wont remember which route u used..n u have to constantly listen to the instruction incase u miss the turn n stuff.. anyhoo...


Tom tom did manage to help us find our hostel:>
Germany hostel is always clean n tidy n neat:> Having say the I still get bitten from bed bug at the end of the trip!!! Is just me i supposed-_-

After we settled in the hostel again we went back to the town for xmas market:> Our first xmas market!!!
lights n noise n small little things that they sell!!!! N u cant help feeling the festive season is just round th corner !! even though it was raining non stop n freezing cold, it din stop people form coming out ..
They are more photes!!! Will show them in other post!!!

We had our dinner at the market, german sausages and potatoes rosti, We all loved the potatoes, n that become our regular snack for the rest of our journey:>
Stay tune, more to come:>

Santa said: U ask for snow?? N I give u snow!!!!!!!!!!
