Day 249: Munich Again!

We're traveling to Munich today. It's going to be a challenge with a two-year old in the car for several hours. But we stopped along the way to allow the little guy to get out and stretch his legs and the rest of us a bathroom break!

First stop...Dachau. My son-in-law wanted to see the concentration camp. Since we had already seen the camp, we stayed behind to watch the baby. It was cold outside so we stayed in the information center and allowed him to explore that a bit. We fed him some french fries and a muffin and gave him his juice.

It's going to be a very long day! LOL!

Next stop was the BMW museum. I opted to stay behind in the waiting area as I didn't sleep well the night before but Ted went with the kids through the museum. Around 5pm they came out and we went to the hotel we had booked for the night.

"Popeye" as Ro calls him, is checking out the engines at the BMW museum.  He, of course, is facinated by not only the engines but the cars themselves!

Ro is checking out the tires on this old 70's era beamer!

He's checking out a little motorcycle.

Time for a rest.  This is a perfect spot!

We missed the entrance to the hotel and ended up going back the way we came and it took us a little longer than we needed .

When we finally arrived, we found out we both had suites!! And I was very pleased with the price of the rooms. We ordered a crib for the baby.

This child absolutely LOVES to play with the remote.  He had fun changing the channels.  And since we don't speak German, it didn't matter!

Outside our hotel window, there was a market going on.  It's so different from  what we Americans are used to seeing in a commercial area of town.

They wanted to walk to the restaurant and we opted to stay in the hotel for dinner. We needed a break. It turned out we had a wonderful dinner and so did they (after a very rough start). We sat for a bit and talked about our evening. We found out my son-in-law had finally been able to reach his friend near Munich and would be meeting him at 11am the next morning under the Glockenspiel in the information center.
