Europe > Germany > Garmisch-Partenkirchen
The hostel that we had checked in to was located very badly. About 4-5 km from the city and it also was pretty expensive so we decided to get into town to find a better place to live.
The tourist information in town found a good place for us. We landed in the basement floor in a private bed-and-breakfast style house. The little place was owned by the friendly Fischer couple. They lived here and had three rooms with one bed each for hire. I guess their children had moved out. This was perfect!
The remaining hours of the day we checked out the old town. We also visited the old Olympic Ski Jumping Arena from 1936.
Tomorrow there will be some high-altitude skiing! Tobbe has never done that before.
