Munich

Munich was going to be one hell of a train ride away, about 12 hours I think, but it got worse, when a slight miscalculation in time reading made us miss our fast train and we had to catch the slow train.....23 hours later, we arrived in Munich, tired, crabby, with nowhere to stay...Munich was off to a bad start.

Still as you can see the by these 2 pics, the train journey started off happily enough. This was helped by a really nice train-conducter-type-dude who after some pleading from the three of us, agreed to make sure we wouldn't have to share our tiny compartment. Apparently we are supposed to be able to fit 3 more people into this box we were travelling in....dunno where, but we weren't keen to find out.

Anyway, after our 23 hour ordeal on the train we arrived in Munich, tired, and a wee bit grumpy AND with no place to stay....again.

Eventually after much ringing around we finally managed to get a place . . . pity it was fucking miles from Munich....miles from anything actually!  We had to walk for 15 minutes down the road just to find a place to eat. What a nightmare and a total waste of a day in Munich.

Well, we decided that we would have to see as much as we possibly could the next day to make up for our sad start. And the next day the weather could not have been better for it. So off wee headed...
