Layover in Muchen
Since
I had a 12 hour layover in München, I dropped off my carry-on in a locker in
the Lufthansa lounge and took the S-Bahn into the city. I traversed the city’s
gardens, palaces, and the gayborhood for about four hours. It is such a
beautiful city. There are trees and flowers everywhere! The only thing as
pretty as the city are the German mens.
In
one of the streams, there is an area of whitewater where there were four,
muscular, German men in skin-tight wet suits, leaving nothing to the
imagination, surfing. I never thought of Germans surfing, let alone in a stream
in the middle of a city in Bavaria!
I
have decided that I will start German classes when I get home. I hate not being
able to understand what people are saying to me. Its so embarrassing. When I
was in Spain this past March, I had wanted to practice speaking Spanish, which I think I do
fairly well. However, everyone kept speaking to me in English even when I
continued speaking Spanish to them. I speak very little German (for the time
being). Consequently, I speak English to everyone here, yet they keep speaking
German back to me. Why!
