This week I was in Germany for work, spending some time in both Munich and a small town about an hour south called Murnau that is near the Austrian border. It was my first "real" visit to Munich, as every other time I've been to the city simply entailed changing planes at the Munich airport.
In reality, my first "real" visit didn't provide much of an opportunity to see the city beyond passing a couple of landmarks while in a cab. Fortunately, though, Emilie are going back to Munich in a few weeks so I'll finally be able to tour the city property.
Murnau was very nice and had a real alpine feel to it. I never knew that Munich was only a short drive from the mountains. Here's a photo that I took from the hotel.
Given the limited free time, the only other area of interest to report on was the food and drink. There was some very good wurst and, of course, some great Bavarian beers. And everything seemed to be served with spargel -- asparagus. Apparently it's currently in season.
