Trains, god I hate trains

Innsbruck to Munich via Garmisch-Partenkirchen, where we saw the old ski jumps which were used in the Olympics in 36. A quick change and we were on our way to Munich. As we had a few hours to kill, back to the Oktoberfest again, where after a couple of steins, we were quite happy. We rode up to the Hauptbahnhof, to get on the train that we had booked, but the conductor was not having any of it. We argued, but to no avail, he would not let us on. Another inspector pointed out a train to us to get on now as it was about to leave. This one was going to Koln as well, so we jumped on it and tried to sleep whilst the train went through the night on its way to Koln. Upon arriving at Koln, we had another one of those, unload, quick run, load get on train, find seat situation. As it was early now, there was no time for sleep as it was only a short ride up to the border of the Netherlands so we could swap trains again. The train pulled in, and once again, we jumped off, ran to the next platform, complete with bike still, jump on next train and then find a seat and arrive in Amsterdam
