Arrival
It's been a long 44 hours of travel but I have finally made it! A small recap: Drive to South Station (Boston), bus to Penn Station (NYC) train and tram to JFK, flight to Munich, 12 hour layover, flight to Delhi (via Mumbai because the airport was closed for the morning because of clouds!!), cab to Delhi (dropped off 2 miles from my hotel because the cabbie didn't know where it was... how hard is "right next to the train station") and hoofing it the rest of the way.
During my layover I was able to take a little tour of Munich. It was snowing so I took a bus around town. It is gorgeous;I didn't realize that 80% of the buildings had been destroyed in WWII and rebuilt in the traditional style. There are a lot of museums and parks - I would love to go back in the summer... or with a coat. From the city center I headed up to the quaint suburb of Freising and wandered around the main street for a bit.
Since my flight was 5 hours late, I haven't had time to see any sights and am looking forward to exploring tomorrow. The drive from the airport was quite an adventure and I think I have the honking system down... ready to hop in a car and navigate the left side of the road - jk. On my walk through town I had to avoid being run down by tuk tuks, bicycles, cows, motorbikes - this should be a much easier enterprise tomorrow without my pack.
