München Old Town

We slept for 14 hours last night... feel almost human today.

And what a day it was... clear blue sky and the temperature soared up to 6 degrees. A beautiful day to wander the city, but the next 10 days are forecast for rain and snow. Woot!

Anyway, walked into the old town where the Christmas Markets are being set up. They officially open on Monday, so we'll have to go back then.

The Markets are in Marienplatz, just outside the New Town Hall, which is called Neues Rathaus (how appropriate). We arrived just in time to watch the main clock to go off at 11. Quite impressive.

From there we wandered up to the English Gardens, which are quite impressive with the autumn colours. Stopped for a Glühwein (mulled wine) to warm us up before walking back to the hotel.Read more
