Welcome!Welcome!Welcome!

to the old town of Munich!
Ok, this palce reminds me of Sevilla.....during Feria de Abril.....except more Englishman and beeeeeer!

Well, first, left Füssen, got to Munich, lucky enough to have grabbed a locker before they were all taken..and headed out to the city!
No map....so wandered in the wrong direction until I stormed into a hostel and stole one of their guidebooks with maps! haaaaa
Then found the tourist info....didn't get much out of it and left lu.

Walked towards the old town first.....long shopping district like all other ones..
Didn't go into the places except the churches.......quite nice ne!!!
I don't really know the history of the place or what...but the city feels good...

Anyways, next went to the BMW museum...I knew it was a small one....but didn't know it was THAT small...
though, they do have some nice cars on display.......
I still want a BMW! HAAAA and especially they kinda work with minis now......make me like them MORE!! wahhaaaa!

Left the modern district and went to the Oktoberfest part of the city and WWOOWW....people in traditional costumes.....the happy songs and the beer tents...carnival rides and all the kids.......the bright sun right in my face...
Woah.....it was fun walking around
Welcome!Welcome!Welcome!

to the holy church...
though!...Difficult to get into the beer tents and those are the only places with beeer in this festival! The beers were HUGE!!!.....I couldnt finish them.......
Lots of festival food.......half metre long bratswurst? somekinda long sausage.., roast pork on bun.....YUM! but loads of meat...I love...but now I think I need a little Vegi break.....
Not really a lot to do on my own there so then left and headed back to the city..waiting for my nighttrain...i got 5 more hours to kill....

CS-ing in Berlin again! It's nice to know people more deeply than just the ones swifting around in hostels..! Well, most cases that is...
especially in Western Europe.....The routine goes on...either Aussies...or other Canadians...but now in the popular big cities...its Asians!... Asian tourists are still pretty enclosed to their little group..and even the ones travelling alone....its hard to make friends...even the ones I can speak mandarin or cantonese with!

NEVER DRINK CARBONATED WATER! OMG...drank a litre and still thristy....so not refreshing.....-___-"
