Buongiorno! Oggi farò un giro in tram fino al Praterinsel all'interno del fiume Isar vicino al Maximilaneum (casa dell'assemblea statale), tornerò a piedi a Marienplatz e vedrò gente che fa surf sul fiume, prenderò la U3 per l'Olympiapark, salirò sulla torre e ammirerò il panorama , ascoltare la voce di Louis Armstrong a un distributore automatico di gelati, camminare fino alla stazione Georg Brauchle Ring e prendere la U1 fino a Sendlinger Tor, fare shopping lungo la Kaufinger Straße con incluso un CD di Helge Schneider, e cenare all'Hofbräuhaus am Platzl, per concludere la vacanza nell'estate 2003. Voliamo a casa il giorno dopo. Spero che apprezzerai l'avventura a Monaco di Baviera, in Germania!

About 7 AM I woke up, took a shower, and went downstairs to breakfast. The breakfast had many fresh fruits and vegetables. Also they had soft pretzels. I had my bag with me, so I did not have to go back upstairs to get it. Hauptbahnhof had at least three tram stops, most lines using two at the most. The tram I needed stopped on the south side of the Hbf, namely, line 19 towards Berg am Laim past Max Weber Platz. The tram went past Karlsplatz-Stachus in a northeastern direction before turning right at Lenbachplatz. I remember in January 2002 going to the BMW dealership across the street from Lenbachplatz and sitting in one of the newest 7 Series BMW sedans, of E65 and E66 series.

The tram passed by the Bayerischer Hof and stopped at the north end of Marienplatz and went on to the Opera House, called the Nationaltheater tram stop. The train stopped at Maxmonument, but I wanted to go farther to Maximilaneum across the Praterinsel. In the middle of Max Planck Straße is the state parliament building. This is where the laws of the Freistaat Bayern are written and passed (or die on the floor due to a down vote). For those who have watched the "Aloysius - ein Münchner im Himmel" cartoon, this is where Aloysius was supposed to deliver a message from heaven, but instead Aloysius went back to the Hofbräuhaus to have a few Wies'n liters.

While crossing the Maximilanbrücke, I saw some people surfing on the river. The weather was good enough for that. At Maxmonument, I took a line 16 tram to the S Bahn station Isartor. From there, I rode that to Marienplatz, transferred to the U3 and went north to Olympiazentrum. In 2003, the extension to Moosach had not yet been built, though there was a U1 that went to the newly opened Georg-Brauchle-Ring. At Olympiazentrum, there was a small shopping center, completely different from the Olympia Einkaufszentrum farther west. I had visited the Olympiapark back in 1997 and 1998, and in particular, I wanted to see the tower and go up to the top. I thought about visiting the BMW Museum, so I thought, it is hot outside, so I think a visit would be fine. I think the admission fee was around € 6 or so. The cars that I remembered from 1998 were still there, particularly the Isetta, the 2002 with racing stripes, a cutout of a Series E38 7 Series, and films on the newer models with safety features. I spent about an hour there, before going to the Edeka grocery store for items to make lunch. I bought some grapefruit soda and Mezzo Mix, then a bread roll, Allgäuer toast cheese, Lyoner with pistachios and mustard. I walked to the tower and found a shaded bench to eat my sandwiches.

The Olympia Tower cost about € 7,50 to take the elevator up to the top. The tower is 191 meters high above the ground, and 291 with the satellites. The Rheinturm in Düsseldorf is about the same height. The elevator went 3 or 4 meters per second. I stayed mostly in the air conditioned lounge and enjoyed the view of downtown from afar, as well as the foothills of the Bavarian Alps. I would not be able to see the Brecherspitz unfortunately. On Friday 26 June 1998, I went with work colleagues up the Brecherspitz, and what a climb it was. There was an extra deck upstairs, not air conditioned, so I went upstairs and was able to see a little bit more. I did not spend much time there, so I came back down. Eventually I took the elevator back down and left the tower.

Before walking to the Georg-Brauchle-Ring station, I decided to have an ice cream cone from a vending machine. I think it cost € 2,00. I had to place a cone in the holder, paid my € 2,00, and while the machine was pouring the soft serve ice cream, I heard the voice of Louis Armstrong singing "Everybody loves ice cream!". It was too bad that I did not have a video camera to capture the moment. I would not have a video camera until March 2004.

I walked to the BMW Museum and boarded the line 180 bus to Georg-Brauchle-Ring. At Georg-Brauchle-Ring, I changed to the U1. I went seven stations to Sendlinger Tor, and went upstairs to take a U3 or U6 to Marienplatz. I spent maybe fifteen minutes outside the city hall. Soon I walked along Kaufingerstraße to Galeria München Marienplatz, and they had a music department. I managed to find a couple of CDs, one being "Diwodaso" from the Frankfurt duo Badesalz, the other being a semi-serious music CD by Helge Schneider, "Es gibt Reis, Baby" which included "Katzenklo". In 1993, that song was controversial. I already had Diwodaso on cassette, but the CD had more content than the cassette. I could not wait to listen to it back in the USA.

With my CDs, I took those back to the hotel. I went up to my room to have a short nap. After about 7 PM, I woke up, and I left the hotel, and walked to the Hbf tram stop to take the line 19 tram to Nationaltheater. I wanted to eat supper at the Hofbräuhaus. I had to walk along the Hofgraben, then Pfisterstra��e past the restaurant owned at the time by Hans Schubeck, and right there was the Hofbräuhaus. I had asked about seating, and asked to be seated in the Biergarten. It's the one that has a fountain in the courtyard. The staff advised me to find an empty table. There was one next to the tree closest to the stairway. A waiter found my table, took my order, and soon he gave me a full liter of Hofbräu Original. It was really good. It tasted a little better than Spaten Helles and Paulaner Pils. I ordered a Schnitzel, I think it was a cream Schnitzel with seasonal grilled vegetables and Spätzle. It was really enjoyable. Inside the restaurant, there was a band playing traditional songs, similar to the ones I remember from late May 1998 just before I started working for the summer. One of the songs was "In München steht 'n Hofbräuhaus, oas, zwoa, G'Suffa!". At some stage everyone shouted "Zicka Zacka Zicka Zacka Hoi Hoi Hoi!". After supper, I paid my bill, it was about € 25,00 with tip.

I walked to the location of Schneider Bräuhaus München along Maderbräustraße, past the Stadtsparkasse München Marienplatz branch, went down to the S Bahn station and rode the S Bahn two stops to Hbf. I walked to the hotel, went up the stairs, and into my room. I had quite an experience the last two weeks, and I was prepared to go back home. About 10 or 11 PM I went to sleep.

Please join me tomorrow for almost the conclusion of Europe Summer 2003. I fly from the Franz Josef Strauß Airport to the Rhein-Main Airport, buy a bottle of Äppler and almost miss my direct flight to San Francisco, and take a Super Shuttle ride back home to my apartment in Foster City, San Mateo County, California. Good night!
