Thee Adventure Begins

Guten Tag! First I'd like to say that only being in germany for 10 hours my first day I got myself into more problems than I've ever had. The plane ride from Chicago to London was a hefty 8 hours, BUT I got a Fenster (Window) seat which was a plus. There happened to be a large high school class that was on the same flight and liked to yell at each other and add their commentary during the in-flight movie, which was most enjoyable. I  had a good amount of movies to watch while on the plane, but didnt have a good amount of battery to make it through one movie. I left Chicago with the sun setting and then came into London to see the sun rising which was pretty cool but also kind of disorientating and I kept checking the time back and home and thinking how it was 8 am where i was and only 3 am back at home. Now the craziest thing about the London airport that I've never seen before was that the entire terminal was covered in stores for expensive alcohol and also for designer clothes and purses. It was like a Macy's and they had a Dior, Prada, and a Gucci just to name a few which I wouldnt think would be all that popular in an airport. Now the first terror that happend to me was that when i was charging my laptop I put down my water bottle and my boarding passes, but when I left I must of picked up just my water bottle because when we were boarding I couldnt find my boarding pass and my heart felt like it was gonna burst out of my chest......BUT i was able to  just give him my passport and he printed off one for me which made me happier then a fish in water. Then once I was in Frankfurt everything went smoothly. I ordered my first mcdonalds meal in german
