Although this map isn't of the best quality, it still gives the general impression of my FINALIZED spring break plans! Oh, did I mention I get my birthday off?! How nice of France to think of me and institute a national holiday :)April 7th: Fly from Nice, France to Nürnberg, Germany.
Spend a few days with Lisa's friend Florian in between Nürnberg and Münich. And in keeping with the theme of all things German, apparently there's a beerfest during the time I'll be there. And quite a few rowdy soccer -- excuse me, football -- matches to be had.
April 13th: Fly from Stuttgart, Germany to Madrid, Spain.
Then I'll take the train from Madrid (though I hope not too quickly, because I would love to see Madrid!) to Toledo where I'll be staying with Laura's former roommate, Sandy. My roommate's getting me pumped for España because she's been numerous times and swears everything is MUCH cheaper than in France! Toledo is supposedly a major religious site, so the architecture must be amazing -- I'm looking forward to doing lots of site-seeing! And of course, since I'm doing the German schnitzel and beer thing, you know I'll have to sample some tapas and sangria when in Spain!
April 18th: Fly from Madrid, Spain to Marseille, France.
Perhaps that weekend -- the final one of my vacation, and isn't Easter sometime around here?! -- my dad will meet up with me in Marseille and we'll head to Forcalqueiret to celebrate my 23rd and his aunt's 99th!!!! birthdays with our family friends in their house-turned-bed and breakfast.
If he can't find the time to come down, then I'll just pay the 18 Euros and take the train two hours to get back to Antibes on Friday and have the weekend to "detox" with a little R&R as I'm sure I'll be needing it from all my travels.
Why am I getting so excited about this trip?! Because I just got off Skype with Florian and some of his friends in Germany who were super decked out for Carnival. Even though Mardi Gras isn't until Tuesday, I guess they need something to celebrate every day over there in Germany.
...But before I get too excited about my last big trip here in Europe, I do have one more thing standing in my way:
CALIFORNIA IN NINE DAYS!!! (I'm a happy girl!)
