I <3 Munich sign |
When we flew to Europe, we actually landed in Frankfurt. However, everyone that I asked about Frankfurt said that thereās nothing to see there and we would be better off going elsewhere immediately. So we listened and we immediately took the train from the airport to Munich. The German trains are infamous for being tardy, and in our experience while in Germany, it was true. Anyway this first train from Frankfurt to Munich was less than an hour late so itās not too bad LOL.
We arrived in Munich still in the morning, from the station we took the tram to our hotel. That day DH was wearing his souvenir T-Shirt from Medan, and while on the tram, someone approached and greeted him in Indonesian! Apparently this German guy used to live in Indonesia for a while. :D
In Munich we stayed at Citadines Arnulfpark Munich, booked via Traveloka. I was surprised that the rate for this hotel was much lower in Traveloka compared to the other websites. When we checked in there was another Indonesian family also checking in. Maybe they also found it through Traveloka :D Though I canāt say itās luxurious, the hotel was quite nice. We love the pretzels that they give out for free in the morning. They were just hanging on the check-in counter for grabs.
Not wanting to waste time, right after we dropped off our luggages in our room we ventured out. We did have a meet-up with a friend who used to live in Jakarta but is now living in Munich. Sheās an amazing photographer, by the way. If you ever find yourself in Munich and need a photographer, do contact Marina from Hey Bella Photo!
We explored old town Munich and visited the Marienplatz, Viktualienmarkt, and walked around the park near the Residenz Muenchen. We had Bavarian food, tried some fruits, got rained on, and took lots of pictures. It was a great first day!
