Well where to begin...

Our first train took off at 12:04 pm at Ingolstadt Hauptbahnhof we left the Villa 11:35 but then of course the buses left as soon as we got to the bus station, so we start walking but the trainstation  is a good 1-2 miles away! We got there is about 30 minutes.. power walking.. missed the train and the next one didnt take off till 1:30 so we wait.. Get on our train. Stop in Nurnburg and wait like another hour to get on a train towards Wurzburg get there and we just missed the next train and then find out that it's so late we are probably going to miss our plane. WE arrived in Frankfurt trainstation at like 7:30 and get on a train to the airport which is like 16miles out of Frankfurt. We get there and I ask someone if we were at the right airport and they say "No I cant tell u exactly where it is but it is far away".. We go to the information desk and they tell us we have to take a train to Mainz which is 30 minutes away and then take an hour and a half bus ride to get there.. So we do that. We arrive at Frankfurt Hahn airport around 11:00 pm. It took us almost 12 hours to get there. The ticket place was closed and wouldn't open till 4:10 am so Hannah and Doug went walking around and Mitch and I found a little corner in a cafe and set up a barrier and attempted to lay down but ended up just talking and hanging out till 4:00.. Hannah and Doug joined us about an hour after they had been walking around. We were all so tired..

4:00 came.. We went to the ticket counter and told them we missed our flight and what could we get out today.. The ticket guy said to get another flight out that day would cost over 200 Euros.. so we decide to head back to Frankfurt and figure out what to do next... to be continued..

oh yeah the city of hahn is only like an hour away from Luxembourg..
