An interesting incident which helped them to change their perception!
Tired after a long journey, with heavy bags on our shoulders, the least that one would expect was to miss the train to our planned destination, in an absolute foreign land. Well, our adventure began the very first day we landed in Germany. The Sun was still brightly shining but the time was already 8 PM much to our surprise and that led to this confusion! We understood that panicking is not going to help. With Google Maps to our rescue, we changed our itinerary and decided to sleep in an intermediate city, Cologne, which was reasonably close as per the Map.
After reaching the main station of 'Cologne' at midnight, Google too went on a vacation - the internet completely slowed down. Now here we were, just the two of us, with 25 Kgs havoc sacks and a bottle of water, standing right in the middle of a 3-level railway station, not knowing which way to go… 'aaaHa'… what a situation to be in! Reliving a lot of similar Bollywood scenes, we managed our way out of the humongous station, resorting to the best style of information - not internet, not maps, but asking every passerby if they could guide us to a near-by hotel for a night stay.
