<\/a>\nWe only had a short trek into Munchen this morning (so we hoped), but we did need to beat the rain that was predicted for the afternoon.\u00a0 However, ‘short’ treks in the hills mean nothing relative to time and distance.\u00a0 We had several climbs, a few times on very rough gravel paths; even resorted to riding through a field, just for some smoother terrain.\u00a0 A cool but beautiful day.<\/p>\n
Reached M\u00fcnchen\/Munich by 11:00, but it took us another hour through more road construction to get into the center of the city (like pros).\u00a0 Stopped for lunch (just before it started to pour) and <\/em>to find a hotel room, only to find every room in the city was booked ARE YOU KIDDING ME???\u00a0 Three hundred hotels, at least 15,000 rooms and they are ALL BOOKED!!!\u00a0 Is this a joke?\u00a0 As we find out there is a “fair” in town and the only <\/strong>room available within 40 miles\u00a0 is a 2-star hotel for over $400. DOLLARS and that doesn’t include internet!.\u00a0 So here we are in this fabulous city in the pouring down rain with (almost) nowhere to stay; though we had only biked 25 miles, we were still tired from yesterday’s ride.\u00a0 We took the room, grumbled a little then went to see the city in between the downpours.<\/p>\n M\u00fcnchen is a most incredible city.\u00a0 It would take a month to see it all well, a week maybe to scratch the surface.\u00a0 We had a few hours in the rain, but made the most of it.\u00a0 Lots of shops selling the traditional Bavarian costume.<\/p>\n This building was just fascinating.<\/p>\n Back to the sightseeing,<\/p>\n<\/a>And then you enter the old city\/Allstadt.<\/p>\n<\/a>Hundreds of thousands of people but more remarkable are the sights to behold.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>Just look at this detail.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>I could have looked at it for hours, but this man needs a beer<\/p>\n<\/a>and he came to the right place,<\/p>\n<\/a>The famous HofBrauHaus!<\/p>\n<\/a>Lots of fun<\/p>\n<\/a>and ready to serve.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>pictures are limited with the rain,<\/p>\n<\/a>but we manage to shoot in between the showers.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>We apologize that we cannot identify the pictures but our lack of understanding the German language and the rain hastening our every picture, this is all we can offer.<\/p>\n<\/a>We did manage to get the name of St. Michaels Church,<\/p>\n<\/a>absolutely breathtaking inside.<\/p>\n
