Hallo von München!

Jul 20, 2009 22:17

We had a good flight and even arrived at the Flughafen München early. We landed shortly after 7:00, and it was gorgeous flying over Germany. It's an even prettier shade of green than the East Coast. (Green is my second-favourite colour after the blues of the sky and seas.) We had no problems with customs (and, in fact, the customs officers did not say a single word to some of us) and no missing bags. We were, of course, utterly exhausted after the overnight flight, but we spent the day on the move, to keep awake until a reasonable bedtime. So, after checking in to our hotel, we went out to a grocery store for snacks since our hotel rooms are multiple bedroom flats with kitchenettes.

Thus supplied, we went out for lunch at the Ratskeller in the Neues Rathaus and then spent the afternoon wandering around Marienplatz in a dazed stupor while trying not to pass out from exhaustion. Cindy and I wandered through Becks department store and some smaller shops, before catching the Glockenspiel show at 17:00. It was nice, but we were quite exhausted and looking up so high with clouds zipping by was rather dizzying, so we gave up on wandering after that and headed back to the hotel.

Tomorrow is our first day at the IJB. :)

Must collapse in bed now.
