Millions of people are gathered at Munich's "Wiesen," to celebrate life, love, and the consumption of beer by the liter. Anyone traveling here for this festival will find the city easy to nativagate, and its architectural grandeur in abundance.

On the way to Italy we've stopped for 2 days near München to visit a few places.  We had very bad weather there! Actually I'm not very fond of this city, from what I saw the buildings were very nice (lovely architecture)  the Victuals market was lovely. But I don't know …

I found the guys at breakfast and headed out to Dachau with them when they finished. (I had only paid for my first two nights at The Tent which had just expired) I did not talk to the reception before we left because I thought I had made it clear to them the night before that I would be unable to p…

I got back from Neuschwanstein in the late afternoon / early evening, so I figured there was plenty of time to check out the Olympic park & stadium from the 1972 Olympics that Munich hosted.   No events were being held at Olympiastadion this evening, so I just walked around and eventu…

i loved it!

On 1st September, we returned to Munich for a couple of days. The day we got back we went to Lake Starnberg to visit the memorial cross of King Ludwig (at the spot where he was found dead, he died in suspicious circumstances). On the 2nd, we went shopping in Munich and spent the last of our euro, a…

Meeting my dearest cousins and relatives and exploring every inch of Bavaria's capital!

    If you ever went to an oktoberfest celebration anywhere, you are cheating yourself of the real deal. Munich's Annual celebration, began as a party for a king. It's success back in the day left it as annual party. Thousands of people arrive there to drink awesome beer and to party…

The next morning we met up with Nathan’s friend Celeste, who’d I’d met before in London. We got up early to enjoy our two free pieces of toast and tea, and met with a walking tour guide. We were on time this, thank goodness. He was a lot of fun! We saw a lot of things that Nathan and I ha…

After a rough night on the train from Venice, we, my brother and I, arrived in Munich in the very early morning and we spent whole day walking around the old city. The place was amazing and I really respect Germans' spirits that they rebuilt the new old town.  At night I really wan…

Up about 5:30a.m., showered and dressed and packed for another day south through Munich and on to southern Germany.  Breakfast at the hotel was not too good. The potatoes and sausage were cold so ended up with cold granola cereal, orange juice, a small sweet roll and coffee. A nice sunny day. …

Finally to the Motherland.  Even though I'm hundreds of miles from my Grandpa's small town by the North Sea, Ardorf; I can feel the allure to Deutschland.  Plus I'm glad to get out of Spain (small trouble with cops mugging us, and train schedule problems).  With so little time, we wi…

Never allow a friend to convince you to drive over 4700km across 5 countries in under 7 days because he tells you that he got world cup tickets to watch Brazil! Featuring: Andrew, Roland and myself. We start off at midnight from Brighton in my beloved Alfa Romeo (poor baby!) for what turned out to…

Palaces commissioned by the Fairy tale King Ludwig to escape from reality and beautiful Bavarian nature make this trip unforgettabale
