medex

today was interesting. we woke up, ate some breakfast downstairs, and then discovered that cydney was so sick she could barely get out of bed. so we scratched the free tour idea and headed for the doctor’s office. that is where we learned how to put our medex card to good use. heather was on the phone with the medex company for about 20 minutes trying to figure out how our insurance coverage worked over here. after they asked every single detailed question about cydney that you could think of, they told us that she needed to pay the full price and give them the receipts later to be reimbursed.

that ate up our morning. the plan was to leave for interlaken tomorrow morning, but since we hadn’t really seen anything, and cydney was diagnosed with bronchitis, we decided to change our plans. now we are staying in munich an extra night, cut a night out of interlaken, and we’ll end up in rome on monday night.

after we set up all of the arrangements, heather, lauren, and i headed out shopping. unfortunately i lost my hat sometime last night after i walked cydney to the pharmacy to get throat medicine. i think someone stole it from downstairs in our hostel because i have searched my stuff 5 times, and it’s nowhere to be found, not even in the hostel’s lost and found. i’m incredibly upset about losing my hat, and have probably driven everyone around me crazy because it is all i talk about. hopefully i will be able to find a replacement tomorrow, seeing as how that was my only hat/ear protection here. and i definitely need a new one in this winter wonderland-ish weather (and by winterwonderland-ish i mean freeeeeezing).

we saw B&B Italia!! so pretty

snow!!

we checked out the shopping area a little bit which was really neat, and then headed over to a modern art gallery. i really liked the gallery because the exhibit was of this woman’s work, and she uses multiple medias. it was all beautiful. one day i will hopefully own some artwork like that…. i just need to find about 3,000 euro lying around…? after that, we came home to wake cydney up from her antibiotic coma, and we ate some pizza in the bar, while planning bananagrams. is it weird that everyone in the bar is getting hammered and we’re playing childrens games?.... hmm…

we’re planning on taking the free tour tomorrow morning! can’t wait to actually see some munich
