Saturday, March 15, 2008

I slept through most of the flight, awakening to the sound of the wheels touching down at London's beautiful Stansted international airport. I got a full view of Scenic London as I took the train from Stansted to London's St. Pancreas station. I got a full view of the -still standing- London Bridge and Big Ben's glorious clock face.

I left London at 1:30pm, on the Eurostar train straight through the Chunnel to Brussels, Belgium. The views of European countryside flew right past at 186 mph. I only got 2 hours of the country before I was in Brussels' Midi station. Midi station is massive, a hub for most Western European train services. From Brussels, I hopped on a train to Koblenz, my first official stop in Germany. I arrived in Koblenz at 9:30pm, just enough time to secure my reserved bed at the "Jugendherberge Festung Ehrenbreitstein" hostel in Koblenz.
