Marveling in München

After much unpacking, organizing and office hopping, we're ready for a vacation (or rather just a fun outing.) Today was our chance. Sleeping in was the perfect start to our rainy Thursday morning. No stressful 'must be on time' meetings or calls to make-- just the rain battering at the windows daring us to get out of the warm bed. Eventually we dragged ourselves out to make plans for the day. Exciting news greeted us on the calendar. Nothing on schedule! A great time to make our first appearance in München (Munich).
We hopped on a bus to the S-bahn station headed for Munich. The ride was smooth and easy thanks to public transportation. Upon arrival in Marienplatz, Munich we set off to one of the nearby churches "bummeling"(strolling with no particular goal) as we went. The day, unfortunately, was a little rainy but even so there were hundreds of people about the square. As we walked we heard tons of languages coming from the people around us. Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Italian, Spanish, English and of course German. Today we melded into the category of these other foreigners and tourists, experiencing new cultures people and architecture everywhere. We marveled at the wonders of intercity München along with everyone else.

Check out our pictures to marvel with us.
