Dear Tourists

Dear American tourists visiting Germany (and Europe in general),

You are painfully obvious. I can spot an American a mile away and you I can see for ten.

Please also remember that this isn't the United States. Refills don't come gratis and while much more expensive the coffee here is worth that €2,50. Stop staring at your map all the time and let yourself get lost in the city. You'll be happier for it. It wouldn't hurt if you would learn a few words in German, either.

And please, while you're here, buy some clothes and take them back with you (excluding lederhosen). White socks up to your knees is only acceptable while weed-whacking.

Wir danken Ihnen für Ihr verstandnis.

Oh, but outside of that-Munich is nice....English Garden is AMAZING and I look forward to uploading some pictures later.

I hate moving.

Moving transatlantic is especially bad. Bah.
