We like to travel.
Monday we begin a wild-goose chase for some wood carvings. All I'll say about that is we had a nice bus ride in the middle of the day which brought us to the Deutsches Museum, Munich's equivalent of the Exploratorium and Smithsonian's Science and Industry Museums mashed together. The guidebook says it's the largest museum… Continue reading Monday, Monday in Munich

Dave and I breakfast together, then he leaves and I linger over the paper and posting our travels on the blog. I do the tourist laundry thing (rinsing out underwear in the sink, rolling it up in the towels, snapping out the moisture and hanging it over hangers in the closet so the maid won't… Continue reading Tuesday’s Travels in Munich
Look closely at this decorated May Pole, and instead of townspeople, merchants and animals, you see doctors, nurses and hospital beds. This is in the courtyard of the Klinikum, where we all met for our outing to Starnberger See, a lake near Munich. We bunched up into groups of 6, received a Metro ticket from… Continue reading Wednesday–Munich’s Starnberger See

I'd been wracking my brain about what little thing I could… Continue reading Friday–Last Day in Munich

The Theatine Church, or Theatinerkirche St. Kajetan, is a glowing yellow church with black accents just across from The Residenz. Royal Ferdinand built it in 1662 as an honor and thanks because his wife produced an heir to the Bavarian Crown. Most men would have just brought a bouquet of flowers and her favorite chocolates,… Continue reading Theatine Church (Theatinerkirche)
