Munich - DAY 3

We started off the day by heading down to Oktoberfest around 10am to have some breakfast/lunch and a beer in a tent, not realizing Friday was a holiday and EVERYONE was down at Oktoberfest, so all the tents were full and closed by 10am. So, we thought we'd sit and have a beer and some food in a beer garden, even though it was a bit rainy. After we order our beers, it really starts to pour, so we sat there getting wetter and wetter, with big rain drops falling in our beers, it was pretty miserable. So we headed back to dry off and change clothes and then headed to the Deutches Museum (of course it has stopped raining by this point). After that we had lunch of Schweinshaxn (pork knuckle) and Obatzda (a camembert cheeze spread Bavarian speciality) and spent the rest of the afternoon wandering around central Munich enjoying the architecture and gardens (as it was a holiday, and all the shops were closed). Early night for us.

Check out all the umbrellas!
