Flight and First Day Settling In


So it has been a while since i posted last because my computer died and Munich airport didn't have free wi-fi, and i'm on a budget, haha! So I left Dulles at 5:30 pm yesterday and I arrived in Munich around 7:30 am this morning. It was about an 8 hour flight. I sat next to this really nice German lady and watched a few movies, and slept for about 30 minutes. The food wasn't too bad on the flight, and I watched the gps plane on the screen for a while, and I wished it was a touch screen game, where I could move it faster. Anywho, when I finally got to the airport, I found out that they sent one of my bags to the wrong airport, but it was all good because within a half hour they were safe and sound with me. Then I wandered around to find something for breakfast and the only recognizable food was subway, but even that was different, haha go figure. After that i went to see if i could find anyone from the program, and it took me like an hour because i was in the wrong building of the airport, haha. Then i found a few and we starting talking, I can now say that i have never talked about music, especially opera so much in my life. It was thrilling! I loved it! So anywho, I waited for 6 hours in the airport, waiting for the bus to take us to Salzburg. Then the bus finally got there and we were on the bus for like 3 1/2 more hours! We finally made it to the dorms and I was excited to meet my family, only they got my housing mixed up and i'm now staying in the dorms. But there is nothing i can do about it, so i'm going to make the best of it! I have my own room and 2 great suite mates. Tomorrow is our orientation at Salzburg College, so I will let you all know about that tomorrow! Thanks so much for the love and support!
Living the Dream,
