the 180's and the München

After a whole weekend (and then some) in München, I'm a real city girl. I can ride the U-bahn and S-bahn all by my self, and also walk all the way from Münchener Freiheit to Marienplatz (like we did on Monday).

I started the weekend together with Daniel, sharing a Baden-Württemberg ticket and a Bayern ticket. He was going to Augsburg, to ride his bike from there to Italy (hope he's still alive!!) Saturday was really baking hot, and me and Candyse tried to stay in the shade as much as possible, drinking iced coffee from Starbucks all day long. The day was all about shopping. First all day in Marienplatz (1 hour in H&M...) and when we were tired enough we went home to clean up and then back into town to have dinner. We went to a burger place that was supposed to be really amazing, but since we weren't on the list, we had to get our dinner some place else. We ended up in an irish/australian bar, and got our amazing burgers there instead.

Sunday we went to Münchener Freiheit, which is a really nice and fancy part of München. Lots of small cute shops and cafés everywhere. We walked a lot, and when we finally reached city we met up with Sam and Adolfo and some friends of theirs (three very nice american young gentlemen they'd met at their hostel) at the Hofbräuhaus. A classic when you are in München. It was like Frühlingsfest all over again (pretty scary, thinking of all the drama we've gone through thanks to that night...), but we gave up pretty early and went home to go to sleep.

Monday was museumday (neue Pinakotheke) & some sightseeing. Again lots of walking, but the museum was really nice. And really big, didn't think we'd ever make it out of there. But we did. We went back to Münchener Freiheit to have some coffee and then we went to the movies. A really funny german movie (Shoppen) about dating in München.

Yesterday everything was back to normal (d.h. not Feiertag anymore) so Candyse had to work. I had to spend the day alone, problem was it was pouring down all day. First thing I did was running to the closest shop to buy an umbrella. Then I went to Lenbachhaus, which is a really nice art museum. Spent over two hours there, and then strolled around town. Due to the rain this was not as nice as it could be, but it was ok. At night I went to Candyses work and they had movie night there. We watched the two first Pirates of the Caribbean-movies. Just a bit more pirates and ships than a girl can take in one evening, but finally the movies were over and we got to go home.

This morning I got a Mitfahrgelegenheit to go back to Reutlingen. This was my first mitfahr, but all went well, and it turned out to be a girl and a guy who study at the FH, and two girls who study in Tübingen. I fell asleep before we left München, and woke up about 50kms from Reutlingen.
