GERMANY 2010 -- 19

+ Today we head back to the USA after 2 delightful weeks exploring Germany, learning a lot, celebrating the huge impact of German culture, past and present.  I will keep blogging about the trip and, of course, upload more photos and create slide shows. 

+ Yesterday, our final full day, the three of us went our different ways.  It didn't rain.  I even saw a patch of blue.  I enjoyed the Nymphenburg Palace, the English Garden, Frauenkirche (including the tower), Marienplatz, Hofgarten and more.  We ate at the famous Hofbräuhaus but we were not able to get into the buffet and show upstairs.  I'm ready for a meal without sausages but i have enjoyed trying several different kinds.  Of course we all enjoyed the Bavarian beer, particularly the dark brew.

MUNICH'S HOTEL MONACO

+ It's June 20 and we have arrived at Munich's Hotel Monaco.  What a welcome.  Coffee cake. Coffee and Tea. Info.  Smiles all around.  Adorable Breakfast Room (fruhstucke).  I get a free breakfast if I bog about this wunderbar hotel. It's less than 2 blocks from the Bahnhof (central train station).  We now have plenty of time to visit the famous art museums which are only a couple of stops away on the u-bahn as it is just after 1400 and the museums close at 1800.
