It was exhilarating and terrifying to travel at that speed on a highway. And there were cars passing us!
Along the way, we stopped at some outlets to do some shopping. My favorite was a store called S. Oliver, a family-owned German fashion company HQed in Rottendorf, Bavaria. Needless to say, I spent some serious Euros there!
We stopped at a few rest areas along the way...where much to my surprise you had to PAY to PEE! It was .70€ (about 95¢).
I also ate my first real "Bavarian" pretzel. OMG. I don't even know how to describe it, but it's nothing like the soft pretzels in the States. Pure. Heaven. And paired with a nice, cold Bavarian beer? Please.
Once we arrived in Munich, we went to Messe Munchen International to ensure everything was going smoothly for show setup and then had a lovely dinner at a small Greek restaurant on a charming cobblestone street downtown. They didn't have an English menu, so I again had no clue what I ordered....which ended up being something edible consisting of meat, tzatziki, bread and a foreign variety of what I believe were vegetables. Which is fiiiiiiiiiiiiine.
On Sunday we did some exploring around Munich's beautiful downtown...more pics to come!
Also? I'm home now. Exhausted, home, and loving it.
