We all woke up this morning to find that one of our group members had never come back from his late night food run. We thought maybe he had gone to stay with his girlfriend in the other bedroom of our hotel room, but when we checked after breakfast he wasn't with her and he had no idea he was even missing. We tried to call him multiple times without any answer. Two guys went down to the front to ask the front desk if they had seen them. They went outside to look for him and just happened to see him walk out of some guys apartment at that exact moment. From what I heard, he had yet to go to sleep and had hung out with some guy he has just met all night. He didn't even think to let us know that he wasn't coming back to the hotel and that he was ok. It was quite the fiasco.
After everything got all figured out, we got on a train to go to Neuschwanstein castle. I was so excited to go there. It's the main reason I came to Munich. It took two hours to get to the area and then we had to take a taxi to get even closer. Even after all that we still had to hike up a somewhat steep hill for almost a half an hour to get to the castle. It was definitely worth it though. The castle is up on a mountain and is surrounded by a lot of much taller ones. The view from up by the castle was really beautiful.
The interior of the castle was really awesome as well. A majority of the surfaces in there seemed to be hand painted. The bed in the castle had really intricately carved wood and apparently the entirely bedroom took about a year and a half to finish. Overall, the actual castle was way better than the 3D puzzle version I have at home.
