10/06/2007: Oktoberfest Day 4

Saturday:

So on our last day we had until 7 in the evening to actually finally see the city of Munich. So we took a free bike tour (except for the tip) that allowed us to see a lot of the city. Here are a few pictures from the city:


The Glockenspiel, which was under renovation unfortunately.



Little well armed German kids hate snakes apparantly.



The Virgin Mary


Evan and I on our awesome rides.



The English Gardens: Apparantly this is the nudist meadow, and is apparantly filled with all sorts of people nobody would ever want to see naked prancing around.


One of the river surfers. These guys and girls ride this standing wave that has its roots to after WWII when American troops were stationed here.


The monument in the back was from the early 1900's celebrating 20 years (I think) of peace in Germany ... good thing that worked out.



Thus ended our trip to Munich. All jokes aside, the city was beautiful. I'm sure the people are more pleasant when they're sober, and the bike tour at the end gave me a glimpse of all sorts of things that would definitly draw me back for a second visit. Maybe next year ...

Much love,
