weiners

Having frequented Hot Dougs (best hot dogs in the country) while living in Chicago we were looking forward to German encased meats. The weiners were paired with everything from mustard, sauerkraut to beer and pretzels. All in all the food was a thick and rich and the beer was fresh and summery, which was a nice contrast.

So we finally hit up good ol' Germany, thanks to our friend Keegan. Our first night consisted of a lot of good beer drinking in a crazy lederhosen-packed banquet hall. The next day we took full advantage of the warm sunny weather (despite our hangovers) and rented bikes. We rode all around the English Gardens, Munich's largest park. We discovered many wonderful things that day. For example, we found out Germans like to surf on rivers. Germans also like to start there morning with a pitcher full of dark beer, I think I kinda already knew that. Also they have some of the most beautiful churches I've ever seen. Munich was a nice change of pace from the quite little towns of Italy. With it's loud talking men, big pushy women, and oh! that accent. I loved every minute.
