Landkreis München

Today we woke up and had a buffet breakfast at the hotel which was delicious and had all the classics like meats, cheeses and bread rolls, a perfect German brekky. We then got ready and packed, walking to another hotel to start our tour. The hotel was packed with people all meeting and starting tours, 3 were starting today. Bags, humans, chaos everywhere. We found our guide and took our bags to a storage room. Next we all met in the breakfast room and had a chat about tour expectations. Everyone seemed very nice but very different walks of life.
We then walked to the train station to head into Munich. It was incredible watching our guide try to teach people how to use public transport and then watch everyone scuttle to get on the trains. We finally made it to the city and it was gorgeous. Everywhere you turned there was more beautiful, old buildings. We had an orientation tour showing us mostly churches, then were taken to one of the most famous beer halls in the world. We sat down and a couple from the tour from America sat with us too. Erin and I had a few beers and some food, all were so good! The vibes were unmatched too, there was a live Oompa band playing and the building was beautiful.
Next Erin guided us on a tour of the city. So many big, grand buildings, lovely outdoor spaces and a park with a river. A bunch of people had their feet in the river so we sat down and did the same. It was super refreshing. We then went into one of the churches which was gorgeous. It was then time to find a pub to watch the formula one in. We went to the Irish/Aussie pub and it was on all the screens. It was a great vibe and such an exciting race. Lots of beer later, we headed to dinner. We were running one minute late and somehow were the last to get there. So we have a slight reputation of being late, leading to much banter being thrown our way.
Dinner was very nice, we sat with an Australian and Canadian couple who were lovely. The Australian couple have adopted the role of tour experts, so it will be interesting to watch that unfold. We caught the train back to the accommodation and got our rooms. Erin and I watched selling sunsets and then headed to sleep.Leia mais
