Munchen Thursday 16th October, 2008






















Arrived safely in Munchen Tuesday night and found our way to the hotel. Up bright and early Wednesday morning (yesterday) to take the train to Salzburg to visit the Lettner´s in Thalgau. Great day at Thalgau, Mondsee and St Wolfgang and finished up with a walking tour of Salzburg. Enjoyed meeting Alois, Erica and Babsie. Very good English allround. Very poor German all round from the TGs. Sadly the facilities here do not allow some great photos of the day to be uploaded. Something to look forward to in future blogs.

Today (Thursday) went to Dachau concentration camp memorial. Well what can you say- a sobering experience. Some rain this afternoon. Walked around old city of Munich. Back at hotel resting and relaxing and preparing for Dresden tomorrow. Only purchase of the trip so far - two umbrellas! Our bit to help the world recover from the economic crises. All stockmarkets will be up tomorrow on the basis of this great demonstration of consumer confidence. We know ALL about it as CNN have found 452.5 ways to describe THE CRISIS. TGs expecting to be interviewed live by CNN any day.

Til the next blog.....
