Year 2015
I have
never been in Germany before but friend and I decided to go there of all
places. I'm sure if I had went with another friend there, we would have been so
lost at what we needed to do (laughs) It was huge help the friend who I went
with was already familiar with the country but not sure if she had been Munich
before.
As our
flight was early in the morning at 8am in 21st of July 2015, I stayed at
friend's place. Have I ever mentioned
that I'm not morning person, with that said it was pain to wake up at 5am for
the flight.
As we arrived
to Munich it was nice to actually have summer like weather instead of less than
20C and rain and windy days. It was +30C and slightly cloudy. Dragging our luggages around wasn't helping
and as we finally arrived to hotel, we were more than glad to be able take a
breath and cool down. After about a hour
or so, we left to city again. Roaming around and shopping and getting something
to eat. Restaurant where we ended up was Chinese. Food was fine but the sauce was way too sweet,
couldn't eat it. I've never spent that
much money on a first day in vacation as I did in Munich.
Second day
we walked nearby mall, it was around 30mins walk away or so. It was nice to just roam around Munich and see
it more but it wasn't such a good idea to walk because it was still hot day and
sun was shining from clear sky. We ate
breakfast there and then took metro to English garden. At the English garden we also roamed around
but decided to go lastly to Chinese tower.
It was great!
Almost all
tables which were located in shadows were taken but we found a table for us as
well. Also, lots of people were drinking beer, even when they had kids with
them.
Third day
the main thing was go to restaurants and window shop and get souvenirs we promised to bring with us. I had never
been before in Hard rock cafe. It was nice experience and food was good, even
when it's bit high priced. I tried
alcohol drink called Electric Blues, it was nice but will try something else
next time. After that we took our time to roam and we ended up to Starbucks
where tried Vanilla Lemon. We stayed there chatting around hour or two or maybe
even three.
Fourth and
fifth day went by just doing some shopping we wanted to bring to ourselves and
searching certain thing for friend parents. I actually almost got to renew my
wardrobe. On the last day we almost got lost in the city since we weren't
paying attention where we were going as we talked with each other. It was
luckily easy enough to get back where we left and knew our way around.
It had been
rainy summer in Finland and it was great to get away from it for a short time
and relax under the sun. I actually burned my hairline again. I guess I seriously should start wearing hats
in summer...
