Just in the Munich of Time

Hello again blog followers! Today's report is live from the Czech Republic.. about Germany! I'm admittedly a bit behind. Two days ago, we caught a plane to Munich. One day later, we touched down and walked to our hotel room. From there, we went off to lunch, and that's where the fun started.

The restaurant was just downstairs of the room where a young Hitler held meetings with the beginning of the Nazi party (don't judge). It now represents a prominent aspect of German culture- beer.

Germany, the land of beer and giant pretzels. This is the main restaurant area, as opposed to the exhibit upstairs.

Yay, I'm handcuffed!

People really can carry this many beer mugs at once, despite the fact that I could hardly lift the two they had on display. Although I suppose I shouldn't use myself as an example of average strength.



And I do decree that hürbem shlap ïna flínken hëiben!

The beautiful English Garden.

The Glockenspiel, a clock tower that plays a chorus of bells and has the figures in it perform a dance at twelve o' clock.

After we had explored Munich, we took a train to Nuremburg, and explored the grounds of a castle. Beneath the castle is a ventilated shelter, which was used to store art during the Second World War.

Nuremburg is best known for holding the trials against the Nazis after WWII was over, but we enjoyed it simply as a pleasant town with a nice, open feel to it.

The rocks out front were just too tempting to resist climbing on.

This was outside the castle. The architecture is distinctly German.


From Nuremburg, we drove to Prague in the Czech republic, where we are now. Tomorrow's post might be more exciting.

Thanks for reading!
