Guten Tag!

Mandy:

Guten Tag! Normandy finally reunited after 4 weeks in Munich =) Norm had a long flight from Toronto to Iceland to Munich and I came via train from Strasbourg. Our first impression of Germany is that Munich is similar to Ottawa and Berlin is similar to Toronto. Munich has a population of approximately 1 million people, the streets are dead after 7pm when all the tourists go home, there are a lot of parks, and the people living in Munich are generally older and are very active (ie. riding bikes and jogging). 

Soon after we settled in our eccentric airbnb apartment, we met up with Norm's LSE friend Andreas at Sendlingertor Platz gate which is very close to us. We walked around Marienplatz which is Munich's central square and ended up at Hofbrauhaus for a few drinks and a snack. Hofbrauhaus is a very famous beer hall and thus very touristy. We were lucky to have Andreas there to order for us because these poor hkers sitting beside us kept getting ignored by the rude waitor. After that we kept exploring Munich by foot and ended up at another restaurant for some German food. After dinner we continued to wander for another few hours and it kept getting colder and colder! I hope we brought enough warm clothes =\
