My capatalazation Makes no sencE

Haven't updated this thing at all. What the fuck. I'm in Germany for god sakes, and even though I can't even remember what I had for breakfast this morning for some reason i think i will be able to remember a vacation in Germany.
I digress, (yesssss, most awesome thing ever, I'm almost intelligent now)
Even though I've been here almost two weeks, I'm not going to talk about that. I don't feel like typing really long entries. Basically it was this: Berlin, godson, Nurnburg, Bertchesgaden, Neuschwanstein, now here. I'm outside of Fussen. Today the family and I went on a bike ride. Always a pleasent adventure.......ugh

First off, we are staying in an amazing hotel. Two bedrooms, living room, kitchen, and my dad is only paying something like 70€ a night, which is a steal even after the exchange rate. This would be awesome, except at some point yesterday, it became INFESTED with flies. It wasnt like this when we got here, but all the sudden its like that scene in the Amityville horror, where the priest/window/everything is covered wall to wall with flys. People who dont know what I'm talking about, they also made fun of it in one of the "scary movie" mockeries. Disgusting.

I hate bugs. Hate, Hate, HATE. Point of that rant was they were in my breakfast this moring, a sign that no good could come of the day.

Our bike ride was okay. Family arguing was at a minimum, and it was mostly pleasent. I had some bastard german rock hard seat (my ass still hurts, and im in a cushy chair), but the gorgeous scenery made up for it. Seriously, this country is beautiful. Anyway, about 1 mile away from the end, my sister falls. I dont mean hit a pothole and went over the handlebars. I mean she stopped, went to get off her bike, and disappeared. Down a hill. Series of events:
Father stops for picture
Sister stops
Sister goes to step off bike, is swallowed by earth
from 4 ft down in weeds
"I'm okay"
...
...
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

anyway, aparently the weeds she fell in were these lovely prickers called "fire weed". or something. Its german, and my german sucks. They are immediatly poisinous, and burn like... well fire. And it was everywhere on her. So my mother and I took her to the lake to try to wash/cool it off, while my dad rode to get the car. While later she felt better, all est goot, etc. Basic point being, we cant have a normal day. ever.


Anyway, I'm really excited because on Friday i'm going to the Wolfsburg volkswagen production plant (wiki: autostadt") which is like a dream for me. I'm rediciliously obsessed with this kraut car, and this place is like mecca for me. Expect updates if this is nearly as good as I think it will be.

Blah blah blah, I ramble too much
