Getting to Munich takes a good 6 hours under normal circumstances.
We had no normal circumstances. It was snowing, it was cold, and it was the last day of the holidays for many parts of the country… so the trip took 10:30 hours, which puts our average speed at something like 75 km/h. Not that satisfying, but as you can see from the picture, we were still in a good mood after arrival!
Had great dinner that day and a good nights sleep. Yesterday I went to Munich's center to do some shopping while Gwendy was at work. Found the most unbelievably crammed, narrow and downright stupidly planned underground parking ever. Survived it without damage to the car somehow. The day was beautiful – not too cold, sunny all over… so I took some halfway nice pics with the big camera, but the upload will have to wait until I am back at decent bandwith.
In the evening we went to two cool bars ("die Bank" and "Ksar") and finished the day with a "le Üwe" at the 'Bergwolf". If you know what that is, you know we had a good time

Today I drove over to Augsburg to visit Brandi. She already gave me a thorough tour of the city – I had totally forgotten that Augsburg is the town of the Fuggers! On a sidenote – I bought a book that I THOUGHT was about Consulting. Well, it is. But the German "Beratung" has, as the english equivalent, a very broad meaning…. the book is about counseling people with personal issues, not about management consulting. But hey, it was discounted, and one can always broaden the horizon, right?!

Now we're off to grab some mexican food, and then we'll hit the bowling alley. Tomorrow: Frankfurt!
