Munich

So there I was, in Munich, the capital of Bavaria. With relatively warmer climate than the north, the people are supposed to be merrier and more fun-loving. Octoberfest and all that, you know. So I guess this street band suits that reputation.

On the official side, there is this New Town Hall.

As I am interested in things technical, I visited the Deutsches Museum.

Inside are a lot of whizzbang displays, including this model of an atom with orbiting electrons.

The English Garden afforded a couple of hours of soothing wandering. This is the Chinese Tower, a pagoda.

I probably did try some of the regional culinary specialities and almost certainly one of their famed beers, but I don't remember any of that.

I do remember the name of one of the U-bahn stations: Münchener Freiheit. It was probably one of those hey I understand what that translates to moments. And I was there before they renamed it in 2009 to omit an extra e, so my spelling is what I saw.
