A Day out in Munich





Under the direction of our Tour Guide - comes highly recommended, we headed into Munich for the day by train. First stop was the Rathus or town hall in the main square, then we wandered down one of the main streets of Munich which gave us a good view of some of the buildings. Simon and I went into one of the churches which evidently the current pope had been the bishop of. Charlie and I lit a candle, I think that was one of the highlight of the day for him - being able to light a candle, by himself. Of course once he told Mia and Amy what he had done they had to light one at the next church! We went to the Science Museum and spent a few hours exploring there, found a yummy bakery in the railways station and had to sample a few of their wares, wandered through the markets, visited another church, saw some more lion statues, they had them everywhere!

We used our umbrellas a number of times today and our warm jackets. Up to now it had been tshirt weather but a cold jet stream came through and temperatures are down to 6 degrees so are now wearing some of the clothes we didn't think we were going to use, it was like someone flicked a switch!
