and although Ingo had a little bit of touble with his bag arriving at the right baggage claim conveyor belt - we had to reverse through customs to get to a different side of the terminal to get it! - we got here in one piece :)
The flights were long. Long and boring haha but i managed to doze a little. Unfortunately cankles were unavoidable and I'm still waiting for them to go back to their original size :s Beijing ariport was ridiculous! absolutely useless signage and at one stage we were redirected back and forth 3 times just to find the right counter for international transfers - a fairly small cue with a tiny hand written sign! Then we had to follow the signs saying "domestic transfers" in order to get to the right terminal for our last flight :/
My first bus trip through Germany was just over an hour and a half, from Frankfurt airport to a smaller airport closer to Hundheim where Karolin picked us up from. We then went back to her place - and had to duck down as we drove through Hundheim - for some food and a shower. We couldn't wait to Surprise Petra (Ingo's mama) and there had been some mix up with plans so we decided to go along with Karolin to their cousins birthday. Karolin went inside while Ingo and I waited outside, she then brought Petra outside. It worked out awesomely!!!! haha she was absolutely speechless! and looked like she'd seen a ghost, then immediately started crying :) plus we got it all on video! :D Turns out she had absolutely no idea so we all did good :)
It also means that today we don't have to stay in hiding anymore ;) Photos later! xx
