LEDERHOSEN !!
Here is a quick entry before i hit the hay..
After many hours of traversing the city of munich, finding most recommended cafes either undesirable or closed (e.g. the jazz club!) i head to the main square (marienplatz) in hope of something good. i'm starving (its late, maybe 9:30) so i head towards the glowing beacon of the golden arches, only to find a wonderful pizza joint run by italians. i devour two slices, a coke and a water sin gas (no bubbles folks). next to "la pizzetta", i enjoy some type of coffee beverage at hagen däz. Then i see on the opposite corner "Lederhosen Wagner"!! I store selling expensive traditional german outfits, including everyones favorite, lederhosen. i'm pondering the existence of people who still wear such an outfit out in public when lo and behold, two children clad in the 'hosen come strolling by, followed by their parents, also in traditional getup.!!! YES!! A crappy night was turned around to a perfect evening.

this is awesome; and YES we are reading every word. I find it very interesting that both you and Kim decided to travel around Europe solo.
Im wondering with all the walking/touring you are doing every day are you losing weight?
we laughed at your story about the shower and at the same time cringed at the reality. Dad gets weekly delayed printouts too. kam
Hah, as evyo says, you haven't lived until you've seen Cesky Krumlov!! Sounds like the perfect setting for an Edward Gorey tale, though it doesn't look grim from the photos.
Headed to Turkey via London on Thursday, using the proven YCaitlin/Newt backpack method of packing - FREEEEDOM!
