Before hitting up the Oktoberfest we had few days to actually look around and see Munich. We did this b
y going on a walking tour which was fantastic. Our guide, a tall black German/Canadian in lederhosen, took us to all the major parts of the city but also gave us lots of information about Munich which we actually remember!! I wont’ bore you with it now…so watch out for when I speak to you all next! He took us to this great Beer Garden in the middle of the city, which we returned to 3 more times. Not only was it a beer garden but there was a fresh food market as well, so you went and got all your goodies (stuffed peppers, olives, bread and cheese) and got your beer and sat in the sun all afternoon. Perfect.
Here, Liz started AND finished her first ever half stein of beer…pretty impressed I was! The next day we went to the Deutsches Museum which is just massive. It’s 6 floors of science and technology from way back to the present day. There was lots of interactive things you could do in each section, we only visited a few Musical Instruments, Chemistry, Photo & Film, Textiles, Printing, Technical Toys and this took us 3 hours. There are 61 sections….some of it was a little hard to really learn off as it was all in German, but still cool to look at. I can just imagine every school teacher incorporating this museum into their curriculum, it’s got everything!
