Munich

Munich and Frankfurt were fun to visit. I only stopped by in Nurnberg via train.

Traveling alone is kinda lame, but I have done it enough that I'm somewhat okay with it. Fortunately my high flying friend Booby was able to visit with me.

Things I noticed in Germany....

• Lots of beer drinking. Esp in Munich.
• Lots of bread. Good bread. I love the sandwiches at the train station.
• Everyone smokes. Everyone. Esp the hot girls. Hotter the girl the more smoke.
• Having a semi-socialist economy means people are done working at 4-5pm. When I walked by an office building at 5pm, it was pretty empty as I peered thru the windows.
• Way too many Koreans visiting or living in Frankfurt. What gives??
• Its really green. Lots of rolling hills, greenery as you take the trains it is esp noticeable. Kinda nice.
  
• Reminds me of Holland, probably since Holland is next door.

I could live in Germany. However, I hate not speaking the local language when I go somewhere.

Pic to the left is a typical sidewalk where people are sitting drinking beer, coffee, and of course smoking.

Oh btw, I happened upon a Bally store in Munich. It is really weird, I went to Bally in Ala Moana, then Waikiki, then Las Vegas Caesars, Las Vegas Fashion Mall, then South Coast Plaza, and finally in Munich! Thats 6 stores in 1 month. Thats weird eh? I'm not a big brand name snob but I find I like Bally shoes despite my reluctance to spend $200+ on shoes even at 50% off.

One last pic, this is surfing in Munich. Can you believe it? They surf under a bridge in a river where a fast flow of water is flowing into a lake.
