Saturday 2 July 2022 - Munich

 Beautiful sunny and warm morning. I must comment on the excellent included breakfast at our hotel. Wide selection of cold items with a few hot. Everything yummy!

Today we rode the Hop-On-Hop-Off bus. We thought about it yesterday, but today was forecast to be a much better day weather-wise. And it was. Sunny and warm, but not too hot. A bit of a breeze. 

 Although there is commentary on many things along the way, our main interest was to check out the Olympia Park and the BMW Welt (World) and Museum across the street. 

 

The park around the site of the 1972 Olympic Games is quite a complex. Large and beautiful. As a bonus, this year is the 50^th anniversary and this weekend they were holding a large multi-ethnic festival. There were groups from many nationalities present wearing their ethnic dress and there were performances on a stage in an amphitheater. We took in a little bit of performance and wandered around exploring. Eventually we wandered over to the BMW Museum for a quick look around without entering the exhibit area. Not interested enough to invest that much time. We next wandered over to BMW Welt. It is like a huge world showroom for BMW cars and motorcycles as well as the Mini and Rolls-Royce brands.

 

We finally hopped back on the bus and finished the tour, topping it off with some gelato. Spent too much time in the sun though and both got a bit of a burn.

We went back to our hotel for a bit of a rest, then walked to the Hofbräuhaus satellite location in a nearby park for supper.

 

Carla and Tyler took in another musical called Six – six women singing catchy tunes - and hit some pubs.
