A few pictures...


This is Mom outside the airport at the Hotel Shuttle stop. 4 bags for the 2 of us isn't 2 bad for 8 days!




Mom wanted to show off the bed, just in case our text description in the previous post does not quite do you justice. And you will notice the contents of our mini-fridge on the nightstand. Only 2 of those bottles contain non-alcoholic drinks. Coke Zero and Coca-Cola!



This picture almost speaks for itself. Airstream restaurant complete with a propeller and wings! Smokey Joe's...maybe we should have eaten here! This is located between Terminals 1 and 2 at the Munich Airport.



This is Mom's meal that was a 10! YUM!


Time for a little game. The slices on my plate are A) bread, B) ham, or C) 1/2 in thick slice of warmed meatloaf/bologna?

If you answered C, you are correct! I had not actually tasted the 'meatloaf' at the time of this picture, hence the smile on my face. At least they provided some very good ground mustard to disguise the taste of bologna.

Why didn't I choose bratwaurt or some kind of sausage? Well, I can't say I've been truely fond of either, and the fact I saw some other person pull his sausages (still linked together) out of what looks like a small soup tourane just sort of turned me off. Maybe I'll have better luck today.


FYI - We have not run into any 'funny toilets' or bidets yet...but if we do, we'll be sure to take pictures and post.

Ben, I'll work on the weather forecast...but yesterday was in the mid to upper 50's with fog/mist for the first have of the day. The rest was just overcast.

I better get some real work done while Mom is still asleep. It's about 7:30 am local time.

Let us know if you have any other information requests!

Christy, There is nothing wrong with sampling the local cousine. Think of it as a new recipe from Mom. Some are winners, some are not. Maybe attitude about approaching it for what it is and not what you expected?

No one mentioned if you have gotten your train tickets yet. If not, try StubHub.com

Chet got home last night to some good home cooking. Supposed to be in lower 80's today and sunny. Sun is just up and there are a few white cirrus clouds. We go to the Apple Butter Party today.

Grandma K called and we are taking the Tempo down today or tomorrow. Plan to stop and see Grandma B's new carpet.

L8r,

And just kidding about StubHub.Com

I ate at an authentic German restaurant in Chicago a month or so ago...

Wiener Schnitzel is really good! (don't laugh.) It is basically country fried steak. Oh, and Hackbraten is more like the meatloaf you know and love...fyi:-)

Glad you two are having fun and stay safe!

Christy, can you email your internet password for Jess' computer? Its saved on mine but now she can't log on hers.
