Magnolia Ficus Tree

MUNICH, GERMANY

I headed to Munich this weekend on a whim to visit my friend Genny. We had an incredible time!

This is a path of gold stones marking the side path of the Germans who refused to salute a monument devoted to Hitler on the main path.

Of course we had to drink the classic German beer and eat the classic soft pretzels. Delicious!

The English Garden, a beautiful Park behind Genny's apartment.

One night we stumbled across Michael Jackson's shrine. His shrine covers the monument of another musician. That poor guy... The hotel that Michael Jackson dangled his baby out the window happened to be right next to this. 

Watching the sunrise over the Austrian Alps.

Dachau Concentration Camp.

This was a concentration camp for political prisoners (those who opposed the Nazi regime). We could see from afar the building which housed the crematorium and gas chamber. The iron gate reads, "Work Makes Freedom."

Here you can see where the barracks once stood. That is one of the seven watch towers, to the right.

We needed some good German beer and mac and cheese after visiting such a heavy place...

On the way back to Rome I got to view the beautiful countryside from the plane. I also flew over the Austrian Alps. There were tiny towns tucked in between mountains and roads winding up snow covered mountains.
