| I had a full walking tour planned out, but with two toddlers, we can never fully plan for much of anything. John made it happen for us to reach the 43-bell Glockenspiel in time for its 11 o'clock show. |
 |
| We brushed by Peterskirsche - the city's oldest church finished in the 12th century - the Viktualienmarkt and the Heiliggeist Church, before we were forced to make an abrupt, unscheduled stop for lunch. |
 |
| Then we walked down Maximilianstrasse - known for its famous shopping - and through the Hofgarten on what was easily the warmest day of the year for us here. |
 |
| On to the EnglischerGarten -- a park in the city even larger than NYC's Central Park. We enjoyed it so much that we strolled the duration of our day there, also unplanned. |
 |
| We spent some time in the sun, sitting along the banks of the water. |
 |
| Such a glorious day, we even spotted a number of sunbathers opting for full nudity. |
 |
| The size of the sprawling biergartens impressed us - some with oompah bands. I should note here that German suds impress us as well. |
 |
| You are beautiful, Munich! |
 |
| A great trip for some much needed family time -- we hope to visit Munich again soon! |
