When I wanted to wash my 8 , it was almost impossible to keep my 9 on one foot while I lifted the other into the water.

My first night on the train was 13 , as I could not sleep, and when we arrived at Munich the next morning, I felt rather 14 .
I decided I could not spend another 15 night on the train. I asked an attendant if I could 16 to a compartment with a couchette (卧铺). He took me along to a 17 Austrian guard who put two other girls and me together in the same compartment. The 18 cost of the couchette all the way to Istanbul was only £ 2.50. The rest of that day's 19 was very pleasant, and our compartment soon became a little home! And that night I had a (20) sleep.
