Leaving Osnabruck

We arrive in Frankfurt late last night; apparently somebody had thrown a brick through our train window. The hotel is quite a change of pace from the hostel we had been staying in however, it is only a brief respite as we will be returning to hostels in Munich.
At the train station Matt and I were able to successfully order a hamburger in German. For me, it was representative of how far we had come since we first arrived in Osnabruck considering we struggled to correctly order a single bratwurst. The hardest part about everything was saying goodbye to the friends we had made during our stay. David gifted me a handful of Kenyan coins for my grandfather; I know he will appreciate them. We all parted company with the promise to continue our relationships via Skype and Facebook. It is amazing how far modern communication has developed. Anything is possible thanks to the internet and a few pieces of software.
I have three days left in Germany, all of which will be spent in Munich. Our train leaves in an hour, so I have to cut this post short. I will write again as soon as I have internet.
