]]> Beerhalls, Bratwursts and OOm Pah Bands!! — Munich, Germany http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/grasimps/eurotrip2006/1152176760/tpod.html http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/grasimps/eurotrip2006/1152176760/tpod.html#comments Travel Blogs http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/grasimps/eurotrip2006/1152176760/tpod.html Thu, 06 Jul 2006 05:17:06 -0400 From walking in the footsteps of the Beatles, experiencing the World Cup in Germany, exploring ancient Greece, to running with the Bulls in Espana!

Munich, Germany

We are in Munich, Germany!! The Bavaria region of Germany is home to Beerhalls, Beergartens, good beer!!, brats, oom pah bands, lederhossen, oktoberfest, and all the best stuff germanz has to offer!! Our first day here we went straight to the Haufbrahaus! A huge beerhall and beergarten that is somewhat overrun with tourists, but still has a very good german atmosphere. The Oom Pah band was playing when we arrived and the beer was flowing into huge liter glasses! Prost!! After the haufbrahaus we went to watch the Germany/Argentina W.C. match! It was a great game and afterwards the streets came alive with fans! Everyone took to the streets after Germany one and everyone headed towards the center of the city, flags waving and chants being screamed! There is a lot more to tell about the game, but I must move on to other subjects. The next day we visited Dachau, the first Nazi prison camp. It was pretty horrifying to actually see the ovens and gas chambers where they murdered countless lives. After Dachau we went to the Munich World Cup fan park and watched Portugal play England with about 35,000 other fans!! Our third day in Munich we went to Neuchwanstien, a castle built by the mad king Ludwig!! It apparently inspired Disney´s fantasyland castle and it is very evident why after seeing it. Pictures are hard to put up here in Germany, but with only a week left it won´t be long before I can show everybody all of my pics.

Salzburg, Austria

When the bee stings, when I´m feeling sad. I simply remember my favorite things and then I don´t feel soo bad!! That´s right we are in Salzburg, the land of the Sound of Music! They have a sound of music tour here, but unfortunately we won´t be able to take it as we are only here for one night. I did get to try some wiener schnitzel though, and it is pretty good stuff!! It is kind of like a pork tenderloin only the pork is a pork chop and it is served by itself and with fries.
]]> The Alps — Innsbruck, Austria http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/grasimps/eurotrip2006/1152155400/tpod.html http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/grasimps/eurotrip2006/1152155400/tpod.html#comments Travel Blogs http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/grasimps/eurotrip2006/1152155400/tpod.html Wed, 05 Jul 2006 23:15:28 -0400 From walking in the footsteps of the Beatles, experiencing the World Cup in Germany, exploring ancient Greece, to running with the Bulls in Espana!

Innsbruck, Austria

After travelling for 2 1/2 days we made it to Innsbruck, Austria in the early morning hours. Innsbruck is located in the Austrian Alps and is a beautiful city! The surrounding area has some great mountains and on our second day here I took a 5 hour hike with a local guide! I can only describe these mountains as being as green and foggy as the smokies and still having the rocky peaks of the rocky mountains!!
