... the metro (which seemed quite expensive) and took the S-Bahn to Rosenheimer Platz. We were delighted to find that our hotel, the Hilton Munich City, was right on top of the S-Bahn. Unfortunately, check in time was not until 2pm and our room was not ...

Brother Phil’s Magical Tour of Bavaria continued with a trip to Munich. We were not disappointed. Marien Platz and the Glockenspiel were first on our list, followed by a walk through of the local markets and outdoor beer gardens. Phil has somewhat ...

... to bad weather and then flew indirect to Paris.  Despite a valiant effort of running through CDG airport to catch our connection to Munich, we missed it by about 2 minutes.  No problem, we booked a flight 2 1/2 hours later giving us a chance to ...

... unfriendly, just Bavarians that much more. Also the history and stuff is more to my taste, Baroque and Hapsburg/Wittelsbach.  I guess Munich wins the battle of the two cities. In fact, I would say that Munich is pushing  London  for  ...

... numbers we found ourselves at the reception on the Hilton asking to call room 115. The problem however was that there were three Hilton hotels in the Munich area and it seemed we were at the wrong one. At that point we decided it would be best to call it ...

... tears in our eyes. Judy and I gave up and decided the solution would be to go get a cup of coffee. While at the Hilton, I decided to check with the Concierge to find out how to buy tickets. He started explaining the machine to me, all the parts and ...

... seating on metal chair imagining that I was getting a free Marie France treatment. Anyway, we got into Munich and after registering for the conference at Hilton, I set off to the house I had rented in Lake Starnberger about half an hour away from ...

... (the Beefeater was right!) and flew the short trip to Munich.  Another very expensive cab ride to town and we checked in to the Hilton Munich City.  It's not a local hotel and could be in any city in America but I don't feel as brave in a ...

... over an hour. I walked back to Cori´s and saw the rest from her balcony. Cori had an amazing view of all of Munich because she was catering a function on the 15th floor of the Hilton Hotel. She came home absolutely exhausted at around 5.30 thismorning. ...

We started the day going for a walk.  The weather is really nice with temps in the 70's and the air smells like autumn leaves.  We didn't have a destination in mind so when we stumbled upon the Deutsch Museum, we decided to go in.  This ...

... markets and enjoy the festive Bavarian atmosphere - and we achieved that and more! It was an easy flight from London to Munich and the S-Bahn train took us right to the hotel - very convenient. we got in fairly late so enjoyed the comfy beds ...

... so I didn't feel like I needed many more. This afternoon was in interesting but sobering trip to the Dachau Concentration Camp just outside Munich. This was the first such camp set up by the Nazis in 1933 and ran until 1945 when it was liberated by the ...

... nasty combination of rain and the Atlanta airport. Never a good one. From Amsterdam, he traveled to Frankfurt and then here to Munich. I am sitting in the hotel while he's working. Hopefully, he'll be back soon! My flight was scheduled to leave ...

... in trouble when he touched some soused guy's knife, but luckily I was able to smooth things over with some drunken slurring. Oh, Paris Hilton made an appearance too, for some reason. And yes, she is just as fake as they say. From the expression on her ...

... where the play takes place. Finished the day in Munich, last sightseeing day tomorrow for this tour, checking out the sights of Munich then going to a concentration camp before a farewell dinner tomorrow night. Then on to London the following day. Now the ...

... as we do refrigerator magnets, but I completely forgot to pack them this time.  Marienplast is indeed central to Munich with a large Glockenspiel in the square and several upscale stores throughout the streets.  We live in Phoenix and have ...
