They have these interesting intersections all over Europe called "roundabouts"... here's a sign for an especially big one. LOL!
We parked the car and walked along the avenue. We saw people gathering at a bridge and looking over at something, so we joined them to see what was up. Below was the Munich River, and... people were surfing on it. Yes, surfing! Amazing! There we were, just a few feet above them, able to watch as they rode the waves created by a huge pipe routing the river under the city.
Some other scenes around the city:
The place we stayed, the Alpen Hotel:
And the typical tiny European hotel room, but it was comfy:
Here's the first museum we visited, the Bayerisches National. Cool signage out front.
The second museum, the Haus der Kunst, had an exhibit by Ai Weiwei called "So Sorry". The sign outside was made up of hundreds of backpacks of various colors. Very cool!
And we caught this interesting vehicle outside the last museum Alte Pinothek:
Anyone need a tiny sapling delivered?
And finally, for some of my fav works of art by Monet, Van Gogh, and Manet... even if not their most famous:
So much to see in Germany...
