Munich

as far as I am concerned the Hofbrauhaus is the most famous Bier hall in the world. I’ve known about this place for 62 years. It seems to be doing very well and it was great visiting and trying the beer and some snack. This beer hall is well known to everyone who ate at Schroeder’s Café in San Francisco which is still there on Front Street.

This visitor found the beer hall to be hot enough to use her fan, not the western style fan.
This lady was selling pretzels in the beer hall
This meal was had at a Google maps recommended restaurant in Munich. The food was very nice. Pigs knuckle along with Bavarian white sausage
Many hotels don’t have a kettle to boil water in the morning for coffee so I bought an inexpensive one to carry along since I can’t survive in the morning without a cup of coffee
Frauenkirche
dragons live!
The glockenspiel. We used to say this word often when I was young and we never knew what it was. Now I know.
A memorial to the Jews who were massacred throughout Europe in the 1930s and 40s
