Munich Part II
From Yi´s Backpacking Adventure III in Munich, Germany on Oct 26 '06
Continuation on Munich..
Tonight is the time change which means..I get an extra hour of sleep before my 7am flight..oh gosh I hope i dont miss my flight!!! This whole time change thing can really cause confusion when I am on an entirely different time zone than the norm.
Munich originated `san francisco coffee company`..
So I went to the infamous beer hall today..Houfhaus..what chaos! Locals dressed in their cultural threads..costumes of sorts watching Japanese tourist try to chug beers haha..they serve beers in these giant liter size mugs AND beermaids run around sellling pretzels the size of my head times two! The mens bathroom by the way has a vomitorium..i will leave it to your imagination as to what that is..!
Munich is such an awesome city..so big yet so small..Germany is a third of Texas in terms of size but as three times as much ppl..or was it six times as many ppl? I didnt do too much today..I fell asleep at the park listening to a guy play his violin..many others fell asleep too..it was nice. I had a chai tea latte at this coffee joint called `san francisco coffee company`.. now I am almost certain that no such thing exist in san francisco..a coffee company yet it is one of the most popular places here..there are three within a 2 mile radius of me..which means..when Germans come to visit SF..they must be really pissed that there isnt a `san francisco coffee company` *chuckle* but there are two starbucks on every block!
My trip is coming to an end and so much has happened in three weeks..aside from me being all over eastern europe..much has changed back at home..a few of my coworkers i will no longer be working with as they have decided to leave the company/area..Barack Obama has appeared to be a heavy democratic candidate for office..there has been a timeline set for Iraq to take charge of their country..I have become a happier American :). Many ppl ask me why I travel so much..and to me its not that much..I make it a point to go on one big trip a year and it just makes me happier. It broadens the mind and opens up your eyes bigger. It always a humbling experience when I travel..keeps you more grounded..I think anyway..
Alright..dinner time..I will write reflections on each town/city when I get back home..
