Munich...a little late...

Okay, I am working on updating the blog... but some of these next few posts will be short on details! My next step will be updating my weekly journal! I REALLY need to get some school work done this weekend.


Back in October we took a "day" trip to Munich. All 6 girls actually went to Munich, but 2 decided to stay the night. Kelly, Erin, Janeel, and I decided to make it a day trip. So I am a big wimp and decided not to go to the Concentration Camp. Kelly and Erin both wanted to see it so after we went to the town hall to see the Glockenspiel they went off to find the Dachau Concentration camp, just outside the city. Janeel and I decided to try and see the sites downtown. We went to two of the three churches along the pedestrian/shopping area. We walked by the palace, but it was under construction so we decided not to go in. We looked for a specific art museum, but our map was sadly lacking. It was a wonderful time. After a couple hours of walking around and site seeing we met back up with Kelly and Erin at the English Gardens, the largest green space on the continent! It was beautiful. After walking around the gardens we headed to the Hofbrauhaus for dinner. We met back up with Ally and Rebecca and made a new friend. As far as I can tell Munich has the friendliest Germans in all of Germany. I don't know why, but maybe it has something to do with all that beer! All the girls were able to finish their huge beers except for me...but I knew when I started it that was never going to happen. It was a fun night though. We left a little late for our train and didn't make it, so we had to stay in town until something like 2am! It was crazy. Luckily the other girls got us into their hostel and everybody hung out at the bar there. Rebecca was nice enough to let me crash on her bed until we left as well. It was a LONG day! We didn't make it back to our apartment until something like 7am the next morning! It was crazy.
