Munich: Beer(!) & Babies(?)

  Lip-smacking...




We planned a short weekend trip to Munich with friends who also have a baby and were pleasantly surprised to find out that Munich’s Fruehlingsfest would be going on while we were there. The Fruehlingsfest is a mini version of Oktoberfest, although certainly not nearly as rocking as the real thing. After the Fruehlingsfest, and some city touring which happened to include a few more beergardens, we realized that our nostalgia for Munich was built around, well, beer. However, liters of beer all day plus an active, I like to eat rocks, crawl away from you & wake up at 5am one-year old in tow certainly changes the perspective. And, when both Joe & I stayed in on Saturday night to watch the kids (ie. fall asleep at 8.30) so our friends could go out & neither of us were up for joining them as planned, well, you could see how far we'd fallen...


We still love you Munich, but I guess it's time to let our relationship cool off after 5 visits by Joe & 6 visits by Liz in the past 10 years. Honestly, it's not you, it's us...
