Germany - Day 2

The second day of our trip really has us kicking into Munich. The morning starts of off with one of the most impressive locations on the whole trip at the Munich Residenz. This is the royal palace for the House of Wittelsbach. As you can see from the photos, they had quite a liking to French style decorations. It is hard to describe from the photos who truly intricate and impressive some of the decorations are, but they were some of the most impressive decorations I had ever seen in my life. 

A lunch with some wienerschnitzel, beaten, spaetzle, potato salad before we took the subway up north to the Olympia Park from the 1972 Olympics and the BMW headquarters and museum. 

After the museum, and an increasingly warm day Megan and I were feeling pretty worn out. We finished off the evening with a light dinner which was a cheese plate and some beer. I have to say that I was extremely impressed with the beer in Germany. I am not a beer drinker, but I had more beer in the week that i was there than I probably had in my entire life. It may be important to note that you do not get free water at restaurants. You have to buy all of your water bottles, usually with "gas" and it costs about as much as the beer. A 0.3L glass of beer is typically around €3-4.
