I guess if you try to visit 20 different cities in 8 weeks, including 7 flights, you are bound to have a luggage problem sooner or later. Mine happened later, but two days before we fly home, Ryanair has lost my luggage. That's right, we were only in the air for 35 minutes between Glasgow and Dublin this morning, but somehow my bag didn't make the trip.
Woohoo.
Fortunately, all my valuables were in my carry-on, and while I'd be disappointed to lose a couple of souvenirs that were in there, there was nothing totally irreplaceable. And really, I pretty much expect that it'll be at our hostel when we return in a few hours.
Oh the adventures.

we've got backpacks, rail passes, and a lonely planet guide. here's where you can hear about our many adventures!
We might add pictures here.
Then again, we might not. Michelle's at camp now, so it's really all up to me. But, you may have noticed that I tend to be the more diligent blogger anyway. So, probably I'll post some pictures in the next few days. We took 1,990 of them, after all.

things we learned about German movie theatres
- 1. There are assigned seats. Don´t just dump your ticket in your bag as soon as you get past the ticket guy.
- 2. You can drink beer in the movie theatre
- 3. There are at least 30 minutes of commercials before the movie starts.
- 4. There is an intermission. Even if the movie doesn´t call for it, they´re just gonna press pause and wait 10 minutes to try to manipulate you into buying stuff. Well, it didn´t work on us, suckers!
