The long road to Munich

Time: 33 hours door to door
Complimentary upgrades: zero 🙁

Had a smooth trip over with no delays thankfully. For all ye doubters, I did manage to fit one month’s clothes in my carry on – see photographic evidence below.

Yes - it is all in there!

We checked in our bike bags with trepidation with hardly a gap between fragile stickers. We were very glad to see these babies still in one piece at the other end

Arrived all in one piece- phew

Our hotel in Munich is a cute little Pension with the biggest door on earth, the smallest room and the most amazing view- very cute.

Arrived at hotel mid afternoon and warded off jet lag with a long walk through the old town – a beautiful picture book city buzzing with people and bikes. Have decided not to unpack our bike here despite the fantastic bike paths – the city is so walkable and we don’t want to lose one of our valuable sightseeing days unpacking it and re-packing to head to Salzburg- so it’s Shanks pony for us here!

Now that's my kind of library - if we had sat down for a read we might still be there now!
