Munich

I did not plan on returning to Munich where I had spent 2 years going to school from 1989 to 1991. When my friend said he had to go down there for work and wanted to get a hold of of a few other guys in the area I decided to return to my old stomping ground.

Upon arrival I found my way to Englisher Gardens where I spent most of the day relaxing in the sun, swimming down the river and serenading all the other river floaters with my ukulele.  

The next day I rented a bike from my hotel and cycled around the whole city including the place I studied long ago.  I think I may have seen more of Munich on my bike in one day than I did taking the subway for years.  

The 3rd day  4 of us took a trip out of town to an old monastery/brewery in a hill where we spent most of the day enjoying our favorite beers in the beer garden.

I has been a treat spending time catching up its my friends that I have not seem in a very long time.   I glad I chose to stop by.  Munich remains a beautiful city that will always hold a happy place in my heart.
