EIS ZWEI G'SUFFA

 Here we are in Munich, journey had it's ups & downs. The train journey & everything leading up to the flight were all great, not so good the rest of it. Boarded early, started to push back and the dopey man operating the tug turned it at too great an angle & got it jammed on the nose wheel. Finally got it released but now the Captain wouldn't go any further until it was checked by an engineer to confirm it hadn't over rotated. Half hour later we started to taxi again & flew off to Germany wondering if the nose wheel would collapse on landing. It didn't! At Munich we got lost on the way to passport & had to re-trace our, so instead of being first in the queue we were last.

This is the town hall, it has an animated mechanical clock where knights joust & beer barrel makers dance.

Beautiful little baroque church that was once a private chapel for the Asam brothers


Hofbrauhaus beer Keller holds about 4000 people. Apparently there's a sign inside that says Gooners not allowed 

These are the clock characters in the town hall



Had a nice meal in the Pschorr beer Keller. Lovely place that brews it's own beer and only sources produce locally around Munich. Had traditional German fare, sauerbraten and pigs hock with pickled veg. Amazing I got the beer to balance on the food like that.
