Hailer Chong and I agreed to wake up @ 4.30am to take a Sun-rise
shot at 7000 feet... only to find it to be super bright.. sigh.. we missed it!
Breakfast at the Mount Pilatus restaurant - Hams of the world unite
1030hrs - Descend Mt.Pilatus by cable car
1230hrs - 1730hrs Train ride to Munich (Germany)
1800hrs- Arrival at Munich!!!
Marienplatz- City Hall of Munich Germany. Consisting of a gothic council hall, ballroom and watch tower. Containing 900 years of rich history
Shot dedicated to Fishcake
2100hrs- Dinner by the roadside (very feel!) Pizza was fabulously mouth watering with a Big flat screen TV showing live Italy V.S France (Euro cup 2008)
Day 2
Weather wasn't too good for a start.. the Umbrellas are out.. eh.. ehh... ella.. ella..ella.. eh... Where is Hebe then? 4 of us joined the Free Europe tour which we enjoyed so much. At first, we were kind of apprehensive of it for being 'free' and even doubt the quality of the tour. Half the time we were wondering if there is any 'catch' to it. And also, how exactly do these compaines earn $$$ if the tour is free??
Our very knowledgable and engaging tour guide. Before we begin the tour, he said 'My job here is not just to educate you about Muchen's history, though I really wish you would walk away learning something and appreciating the rich culture of Muchen, but more than that, it is my hope that I could entertain you. At the end of the tour, depending on how entertained you are..... $ $ $ $.... So thats how it works, the company's earnings are from the tips from the tourists
Beer Garden
Need a drink in the streets of Munich?
Behind the trios was the stretch of road where Hilter's personal bodyguard took 12 bullets for him in a gunfire. Without this loyal bodyguard, I bet history would very much be different from what we learn today
Lunch: Chicken stew and Beer
We took some time to roam around by ourselves in the afternoon. Meng Kiat's favourite tour itinerary- Visiting universities around the world (University of Munich)
The BMW headquarters Munich Olympiapark
The 1972 Summer Olympics games were held right here. West Germany, Munich
A nice place to chill as well
Climbing the gate into the main stadium arena seems slightly challenging for our MDC friend
Kind of a breeze for the Commandos eh?
So there was a tour for 'walking along the roof-top of the stadium.' A safety harness was required to be worn. But being 'smugglers of ourselves,' no such facility was made available to us... Nevertheless...
PRC's MDC Challenge + Hailer Chong, The Ultimatica Shameless
Trains in Munich
At 1630hrs, we headed to Allianz Arena stadium
The Allianz Arena, also frequently known as FIFA World cup stadium is a football stadium north of Munich, opened since 30th May 2005 with a capacity size of 69,901. Cost of construction =€ 340 million
Shot dedicated to Hitachin, Cho cho, Black-maine, fishcake, Soapie, Xiao Wan Zi, Spy Lau and Prince white At 1900hrs, we decided to experience 'Uniquely Munich' and headed to Hofbrauhaus for dinner..
The Staatliches Hofbräuhaus in München (literally state court-brewery in Munich, also Hofbräu München) is a brewry in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, owned by the state government. The Hof (court) comes from the brewery's history as a royal brewery in the Kingdom of Bavaria.
And the very warm Germans were enthusiastic in showing us the 'Must trys' in Hofbrauhaus to ensure our Munich experience.
I got rather freaked out by the massive mug size of the 1-litre alcohol which to me seemed pretty 'hard-core.' But when I attempted to order coke, the waiter playfully and intentionally ignored my request and returned with 4 mugs of beer., grinning as he served. The waiter's 'service excellence' amused Hailer Chong which explains his crocodile mouth in the picture below
Gripped with fear, I stand helpess. 'Sure gone case' Hailer and Jon seemed strong and season-ed when it comes to this
Well... seems like not really
The beer maids in Hofbrauhaus
Meng Kiat's new found American friend (Woo Hoo!)
After that night, I confirmed once again and pledge my HATRED for beer. Though I was no where close to being drunk, my head felt as if a 1000N of mass was pressing on my head. I felt like puking and the feeling was just CRAP.. GROSS...
The 2 pictures taken above show us resting on a grass-field. Not because we were tired... but because I couldn't move an inch anymore because I felt so so terrible. Away from me disgusting bitter piece of liquid!
