München (Munich), Germany

Saturday Carolyn and Ed headed to Munchen for the day. Liz, Em & Tori had a swimming day at the hotel. All parties were happy with the decision. After an hour and half train ride out of the Alps we arrived in Munchen. We just walked the streets looking at the local architecture. At the Marion Platz we watched the town hall clock show at noon. It was pretty cool. After that we headed to the famous Hofbräuhaus for lunch. The Hofbräuhaus is a famous landmark in Munchen. It is where the Oktoberfest festivities are held. Of course when in Rome (Bavaria in this case) we enjoyed a couple of Mass Biers and some fine encased meat. The hall was quite lively and the food was good. After having our fill of German cuisine we headed back out to roam the streets to see the town. We couldn't have had better weather for this afternoon walk.
