Traffic Jam

On our way back from Schloss Neuschwanstein we got stuck in a pretty bad traffic jam, that delayed us for about 1.5 hours. Donnie and Andreas took some photos of it:

What had happened? Two cars collided with the barrier between the lanes, and it seems a third one crashed into them. We saw the cars when they got towed away, they were completely totaled, and the central barrier had actually been ripped out of the ground. The passengers and drivers were brought to the hospital by emergency ambulance. There’s a German news article about the accident; it seems the injuries were not so bad, but there’s an impressive photo of the damaged car.

Sleepless in Munich

Well – Not quite. I fell asleep sometime after 4pm and woke up sometime after 9pm. Guess I really needed it – the sucky part is, it will just result in insomnia again. I know they say you should get about seven to eight hours of sleep per night; I get around six on a good night. Usually, it’s between four and five. If you think that’s cool in any way, then you clearly never had this problem.

Tomorrow I’ll go on a little road trip with two of my co-workers; I hope that’ll tire me out enough for a good night’s sleep.
