Blue Munich

It's Wednesday and that means the week is almost over! Why do I secretly wish it was Friday tomorrow? Perhaps its because I spent last night parting until the wee hours and then had to work today. Why do I do this to myself. Well to be fare my friend was visiting from Germany an convinced me to come out. You think peer pressure stops after high school? In your dreams.

Frankfurt am Main

Not the most exciting city in Germany. I was here not by choice...for work. So you have to make the best of it. Definitely the city with the most skyscrapers in Germany. Makes sense considering that it is the financial hub...home to the European Central Bank. More exciting photos coming tomorrow!

Englischer Garten: One of the most beautiful public spaces I've seen. Taken in Munich.
Today I finally received my iPhone4 and looking forward to taking more photos on a daily basis. Stay tuned!

Surfin' Munich

I think this is by far one of the coolest things I have witnessed in a city. Who knew you could take your surf boards and hit some waves on a Saturday morning right in the heart of the city centre. -Munich

BMW Welt (world)

While in Munich I went to the BMW Welt...welt=world in German. This was the free entrance show room. Next door was the museum which we never got around to. The place was spectacular, architecturally speaking; sort of reminded me of some of the Bond films. Speaking of...did you know that Pierce Brosnan is set to star in his own TV series?


The fancy restaurant. You can see the Olympic village in the distance...

First impressions of Munich...

When you think of Munich you think back to the Olympic Games in 1972 or you think back to the terrorist disaster during the olympics or you think of Steven Spielbergh's film about the 1972 terrorist attacks or you think of it being the most iconic and richest German city. Or you think of beer. This landmark for sure makes you think of Munich; the olympic tower. 



Olympic park at sunset. This lake and the hills you see are 'fake'; artificially created for the Olympic games.

Peace in our time...

I'm still in Munich and we planned to go out last night online to discover that clubs would be closing down at midnight. Yesterday here in Munich there was a demonstration by the Neo-Nazi party (some 300 hundred people) and as soon as the city found out about it they decided to organize another demonstration 'Munich is Colourful' which attracted some three thousand people. That's the way to go! The city almost felt like a war-zone with police everywhere. Today in Germany is supposed to be a sort of remembrance day. Munich IS beautiful! Photographs from Munich to come this week. *this picture is taken in Toronto from a few weeks ago*

Up in the air...

This is from my stopover in Frankfurt a few weeks ago. I'm currently in Munich visiting some friends for the weekend.  It's cold and rainy today but unlike Barcelona the flats are properly insulated and very warm :). Have you been to Germany? What's your favourite city? I quite like Berlin. 
Approaching Barcelona. 
Shortly after take-off in Frankfurt. Look for the moon.

From Toronto to Frankfurt, Airport Sunrise

My stopover in Frankfurt on my way to Barcelona. I love airports. I feel like a kid getting all excited watching planes taking off and landing.

Hmm I wonder what they do in that 1 hour that they're closed. Berlin, Germany
