Munich

Munich
9 June
Alright- We made it. Obviously.  I am currently sitting in our hotel room in Munich and there is no internet service in our rooms so I am writing this in Microsoft Word and I am going to copy and paste it whenever we can get internet on this laptop. Today in Munich was fun. After getting lost and subsequently finding our hotel, we got some lunch and settled in for small naps and much-needed showers, then headed out to explore the city. We walked east into the city center and meandered around. After taking a look at some of the old cathedrals and the opera house/palace, we headed to the Hofbrӓuhaus for dinner. That place, although really cool, is a total tourist trap. The beers there (which is what they are famous for) come in small and large. We were told we could only order larges. The large size was a liter of beer, so mom and I split one (see pics for how big that is). The only way to describe this place is a combination of a dining hall and a bar. It’s loud, you just find a spot at a table, often with people you don’t know, there’s music, and it’s pretty awesome. We ended up sitting at a table with some women that work in Munich. They showed us some really cool places to explore in the city next time we come back. We also got some pictures with a mime that was really cool. Check out the pictures tab for more!
