Life Lately // Vacation Update

Hello there! I just wanted to let you all know I made it to Germany in one piece. It was a loooong trip though, including an 8 hour overlay in London. I was so happy when I finally arrived in Frankfurt! I left Little Rock at 6am. First pit stop in Chicago (I LOVE O'Hare Airport!), and then across the big pond, London-bound.

My sister took this paparazzi snapshot of me. I just closed my eyes for 5 minutes. I promise.

I was cheap when I was booking the flight. That's why I had the 8 hours overlay in London. It wouldn't have been all that bad, but almost every single shop and restaurant was closed. I was a little surprised about everything being closed, since Heathrow is such a huge airport! Even the "Heathrow Express", the train connecting the terminals, was closed for the night. So I had to find the Night Bus stop, and wait 30 minutes to get on a (doubledecker) bus to my departure terminal 5. All this after 2 flights and hours and hours of traveling. Sucks.

Luckily there was a "Marks & Spencer" open at terminal 5, so I stacked up on water, fruit, and vegetables for the night. So I was just sitting there, watching "2 Broke Girl$", eating, drinking, people watching, all night, waiting for the security check-in to open at 5:30am the next morning.

The 3rd and last flight was from London to Frankfurt. Guess who fell asleep even before the plane took off? Yep, this gurrl. I slept the whole flight, only woke up once, when the flight attendant was trying to hand me a croissant. But then I fell back asleep and woke up seconds before we touched down in good old Germany.

The first 3-4 days were like hell, jetlag wise. I was so super sleepy! Now it's been 10 days already, and slowly I'm getting used to the German time zone again.

Watch out for some more posts from my time in Germany! 
And I have an awesome guest post coming up!

Up and away!



Chicas, I'm nervous. I will hop on the plane in 12 hours. Flying across the big pond to my boo and his parents. I HATE FLYING.
Nuremberg -> Frankfurt -> Houston -> Little Rock. That's my plan. My flight-plan ;o)

I was all cool during the past weeks, but now that it's HERE.... Geez. My stomach is acting up and I'm just one wreck.
The alarm going off at 3am won´t be much help, too! Arrrrrrrrrrgh!

But: I'm looking forward to be with M again! I miss him so much!

I will be in the US for 2 weeks, but I will try to keep you guys updated with a couple of posts :o)
