Day 33 - Saturday 27 June


Munich.

What a great city, which we unfortunately only had 24 hours to enjoy. It has magnificent architecture, many platzes (inluding Marienplatz, with its amazing Neues Rathaus, with its Glockenspiel show), many kirches (beautiful inside and outside), great shops, many tourists (including countless buck's and hen's parties), plenty of good food (we had a delicious dinner at - www.pfistermuehle.de) and of course, many bierhalles, including the Hofbrauhaus.
