Getting familiar with Munchen

Ba is getting better at German, and lots of people are telling us maybe for jobs.  We will see how this next week pans out.  We went on a picture scavenger hunt yesterday.  We could recreate the Munchen guide book with much better pictures.  We really are having a riot over here.

Like I said we are having a riot.  FC Bayern the local fussball club was playing Stuttgart.  They are rivals.  Bayern won the game, but another team had to lose to put them on the top.  These are riot police waiting for the train from Stuttgart to arrive.
Here is a super mob of fussball fanatics.  They started singing and chanting so it echoed in the entire Bahnhof.  It was super loud.  The police had all sorts of armor and padding on, it was just fun to be there, and know it was safe because there were over 100 police there.  Plus we were far enough away from the action.  People sure do love soccer.

This was part of our video scavenger hunt.  We have found new joys in taking action pictures at really cool monuments.

Ba is either 260 meters tall or the building she is pointing to is really far away.  We went to Olympic park and enjoyed a little walk around and a climb to the biggest hill in the area.  We had a great view of the whole city.  We want to go back and swim in the Olympic size pool to live Ba's lifelong dream of being an olympic swimmer.  We were going to swim in the lake, but the huge fish would have eaten our toes for sure.
This 3D glasses picture in Deutsches Museum was cool.  If you "put the glasses on" you could read the book, but the whole thing was a flat picture anyway.  It was a hoot.
There were all sorts of puzzles that were very puzzling for Ry.  The kids would have loved it because one block could be put into a circle, square and triangle.  We were entertained for hours at the museum.
This was a lake outside of Munchen called Starnberger See where people obviously loved to sail. We layed on the dock and relaxed.  We were disapointed we didnt bring our swimsuits.  Then again, we are in Europe, and nobody would have looked twice if we were skinny dipping.
This is a little castle made by the fairy tale King Ludwig II.  The only reason we discovered it because Ba had to go to the bathroom very badly.  It was super awesome and we decided we would build a house just like it.
This is Ry being silly on the playground.  They have great play grounds here, but we figured they were all too dangerous to be allowed in the states.
This sports bar by our house always has soccer games and really loud drunken Turks.  It is pretty fun to catch up on sports while we are there.

We love you and have a great day
