Travelin Monkey

After a 10 hour flight and a 6 hour search for Sayat in the Frankfurt airport, I went ahead and rented a car by myself. Koko & Sandro weren’t set to get in until 3 pm, Sayat was supposed to get in at 8 am, and me at 9 am. I spent until 1 pm looking for him, then decided to head out on my own in Frankfurt to exchange our tickets, to get tickets under our names. What should have been a 11 km and 5 min ride ended up being a 1 hour ordeal and a 45 km ride. Streets don’t run normally here.

I went back to the airport and found kok & sandro. we looked for sayat for an hour more, then decided to head out and see if he might have missed his flight. He landed at 3 pm, the ass!! Got too drunk and missed his morning flight! So, we hopped in the car with the GPS system named Tom Tom and headed towards Leipzig. Except, we all forgot it was a friday, and after sitting in a plane for 11 hours, standing around in the airport for 6 more, I found myself driving 3 knocked out asses in bumper to bumper traffic for 5 hours towards Leipzig. THE AUTOBON.. I hit 180 kmh with 3 fatasses and all our luggage, and STILL there were cars lapsing me! CRAZY!! (thats like 110 mph guys)..

We made it into leipzig at around 5 pm and started to look for a hotel. This city is like all the other german cities and we doubt we will spend any more time than we need to here. Germany is very open and green, lots of trees, and hardly any buildings.. except when you reach a city and suddenly you have buildings!! There isnt JACK to do anywhere in Leipzig, and the few mexicans and argentineans that are here ATTEMPT to party, but the entire god damn place is closed! We ended up finding a room, thank god, at 10 pm. They wanted $104 euro for the room, 2 people max. So, kok & I registered and found a staircase that opened to the road and snuck sayat & sandro in. We FINALLY had something to eat at MIDNIGHT.. these people didn’t want to eat until we had a place to sleep. That was the BEST meal of my life.. turkish food, good and cheap.

This place is expensive as all hell and we have no where to sleep tonight. Everything is booked, so we are thinking about staying up all night and training it to prague and spending a couple of days there. They dont allow our car in Czech republic and we don’t want to pay the ridiculous euro charge to take it. BTW, no one speaks that well of english, none of us brought a dictionary, Due Hast meinsh doesn’t get you too far.. and thank god for Tom Tom, or else we would have been SCREWED! We also decided to strictly speak armenian to these people, since they hardly understand english or spanish.. at least that way we instill fear!!
