Meaningful Moment

Don't think there was one, but it was a nice day. 

Random Thought of the Day

It is super cold in Munich today. Temperature is 25° f but it feels like it's 19. I am so glad I am not hiking today lol.

On the Road / Notable memories

Took the morning for a super long breakfast, relaxing over the table and reading the newspaper.

Nice walk in Englischer Garten. In a crude description, you can think of it as Munich's version of New York's Central Park.

It was fun watching everybody out with their dogs, and watching the dogs chase each other through the snow. Looked like everyone was having a good time on this cold Munich morning.

In the afternoon took the Christmas market tour. We visited three Christmas markets.

Dinner time.  Try the subway one more time. Had trouble because I couldn't enter my destination. 
Turns out I was on the wrong screen, lol.

At Sendlinger Tor (Gate). Stopped in at a healthy foods restaurant for a shrimp salad and lemonade. And after this, I'll try and find a hamburger. Haha. ... Turns out I've got no room for the hamburger.






Englischer Garten





















Marienplatz Christmas Market.

Hundreds of stalls.


See the guy in the traditional mountain wear?





Glühwein is served hot, red or white wine, with the sugars and spices and fruit. Given that the temperature was about 22°, it was perfect for the moment. :-)








Medieval Christmas Market











Medieval Christmas Market. Christmas story being told by a dad to his son.




Sendlinger Tor




My final German meal: Fran on a bed of fruits and vegetables with mint flavored lemonade. Perfect meal for the night before you go flying.
