Current Worries

Two things are on my mind: weather & bathrooms

So the current weather in Cluj, Romania as of this moment is 14 degrees Fahrenheit. Tomorrow's high is 26, and tomorrow's low is 10. Since my trip is ten days away, I can look at the ten day forecast.

If you scroll to the bottom, you'll notice that there's a 30% chance of snow on the first two days that I'm there, the 7th and 8th. Brrrrr! I spent Thanksgiving in Pioche, Nevada where the lows were in the teens, so I have a bit of a concept about how cold that is. Now I just have to remember that when I get to Germany, I'll need to find a bathroom so that I can change clothes and add the necessary layers.

This brings me to my second worry: Bathrooms

Growing up in Southern California, you take Spanish in high school. I took three years and forgot two and a half of them. I could fake it well enough if I was in Mexico, but I know nothing about German.

Well, I do know three things: gesundheit, hamburger, & Heil Hitler. Unless my plane is a 1985 Delorean, I don't think I'll need that last one.

So, how do I find the bathrooms when I get to the airport in Germany? Hopefully the signs will be helpful enough...

  1. The weather part of this name me think of "Cool Runnings" when the Jamaican team arrives in Canada and one of the guys puts on everything he owns, including his suitcase. I'm sure you'll figure out the bathroom sitch quickly. ;)

  3. really don't worry about finding bathrooms in an airport!! i've never had any trouble with that anywhere i've gone. if people around the world couldn't find a bathroom in an international airport, there would be a lot of problems... =)
