Touchdown

Woooo Hooo! Finally after a massive flight I have arrived in my new home town for the next few months, Mainz. After Singapore I had a quick stopover in Heathrow, such an amaying Airport. It was absolutely ginormous and pretty futuristic. Definitely going back to visit while in this part of the world.
When I got to Frankfurt airport I was met by Georgia, one of my friends from Melbourne who has already spent a 6 months in Mainz and decided to stay on for another semester. We had to catch the train from the airport to the Hauptbahnhof (main train station). As soon as I stepped out I had a smile the size of a Grandioso Parma. Mainz is such an amazing town. I've already taken lots of photos and will promptly post up once I have the Internet at my appartment. It is a pretty decent sized room, big enough for one person and already I have made a friend on the same floor.
Last night Jane, Adrienne and I (two other mates from Swinburne who arrived on Monday) went to Aldi's for some groceries and made our own dinner. I pretty much passed out afterwards as I was so tired from my flights. My tutor emailed me today and coincidentally it is her birthday so tonight it looks like we will be having a little party in Altstadt (old city). We went there today and had a Turkish Kebab with Erich (our design/exchange coordinator) as he said it was the best place for Kebabs in Mainz (of course they're the best...they are Turkish!)
