Whilst my accomplice stinks out the rest of the foyer; I am trying to write a post on this crazy keyboard. The ü key is right of the p, the y and z have been swapped and never mind the extra characters.
So what have we been up to? We arrived on Tuesday and made it straight in to Airbräu where wequickly learned that the concept of a 'half' doesnot exist in these here parts. So it has been and will remain to be pints from now on ("Pray for MoJo"). We met up with Jan, a cousin of Chris' who courageously, magnanimously and gracefully put us up (read: put up with us) for the last two nights. On the first night after we dropped off our bags, he took us to Löwenbräu, a large brewery near to Thresienstraße (where Jan lives, near to the centre of Munich). This is where we first had roast pork. And for me, maybe the last for a while. This 'pork knuckle' was the size of a melon! After that, I have been wary of pork products. The other disadvantage to a all 'pork and cabbage diet' is... well... you can imagine that the Munich air is tainted.
Well I only have a few minutes left so I'll skip to the end. Tomorrow we hit Andechs, South of Munich for the Andechser Brewery. We'll be taking a walk through the woods so we'll be sure to get some good footage, and probably get attacked by a bear, which have been said to roam these parts.
Oh, and we'll be getting some pictures of ourselves up on the blog as soon as possible.
For the record, here are the breweries we've made so far!
