    When I was in Europe, I usually went to a bakery, got a small loaf of bread, went to the butcher and got some hard salami that doesn’t need refrigeration, and got some cheese. Snack or lunch, it was good. Saved a lot of money, and it worked wherever I was - France, Belgium, or Germany.

      That's smart, and sounds delicious! We've been doing that too, but at supermarkets and it's saved us some money already! 😄

      My wife and I lived on that in Paris. We also carried a couple of those little airline sized wine bottles which we would fill up before we left our BnB. Their whole grain bread was fabulous and cheese and ham was quite affordable. Only problem was I had to carry a knife of some sort to cut the bread and I kept getting it confiscated when I went in a museum or gallery. But I eventually got smart and began hiding it in a nearby garden.

      @@JimmyandNatalie I hope you can find some small shops for your supplies. Meeting people in a small shop is a great experience. You would be surprised how far pointing at something and asking “wie viel kostet es” can go.

      If you are still in Munich, Dachau (concentration camp) is about 19 miles north, and it was a very humbling thing to experience.

    While in the USAF we spent 3 years in Germany. By far our best assignment. You need to treat yourself to a Jaegerschnitzel dinner.
    The bakeries in Germany are outstanding as well as in Innsbruck if you go to Austria.
    Do forget to visit some of the old castles throughout Germany.
    If you have tome go to Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Enjoy .

    That was a great shot of Natalie with the pretzel and dunkel bier. Natalie didn't have to say she was happy; I could see it in her smile. Dunkel is my favorite, too; and Hofbräuhaus is my favorite brew house in Munich. Pro-tip: you can only order the liter mugs after 6 PM, no half-liters. Check out some of the other Oktoberfest Breweries in Munich. I think there are six.

    Travel tip: avoid those ATMs that say CASH or Eurostar, Volksbank Reifeisenbank, or have something in English. they usually take high fees. Use ATMs from Sparkasse, Commerce Bank, Deutsche Bank, Postbank or ING. Most ATMs have a little sticker that tells you what card comes with what fees. For example, the Hamburger Sparkasse takes 5 Euros for non-member master cards but no fees for Visa and Maestro/EC so you only end up paying your own bank's conversion rate.

    Try to see the Neuschwanstein Castel ,, we took the Tran to the top of a beautiful mountain Pilatus in Switzerland , went to the top and had lunch, the ride up the mountain was just wonderful , The Eagles Nest is so much worth seeing, we took a crunch down the beautiful Rhine River, ,Berchtesgaden, it’s all so much fun and like I said before , the Beer and food is great, I just thought I would throw in a few places we enjoyed so much there, 🤗👍

    Hoping you got to enjoy Volksmarches in Germany. Great hikes/easy walks through small villages/towns and their countrysides. Super cheap and happen every weekend all over. Usually end at a town hall with refreshments. Such a great way to see the country and its communities.

    Apfelschnecken literally translates to apple snails, probably because it’s rolled up like that.
    I’ve been a few times in Bavaria, but never to Munich.
    Whenever I’m in a public building like that, I live by the rule that as long as there isn’t a locked door, I’m probably allowed to be there. 😅
    You’re probably no longer in that area/have already made your itinerary, but 129 km north of Munich is Nuremberg, also a very interesting city.
    I live 5 minutes from the German border, so I regularly get my groceries there, and whenever I do, I buy a pretzel to snack on, on my way back home.

  • @KaySan666

    Just a little clarification. the Eisbachwelle definitely isn't put there for the surfers on purpose. Its just the spot where the underground spot reaches the surface again and to prevent it from eroding the canal floor, they put a ledge there that creates this continuous standing wave.

    And for Lunch I would have recommended a Leberkässemmel. You can get them in every butchery and the normally cost between 2-3 Euros

I lived in Germany for 4 yrs my parents were in Air Force I was a teen- ager then, it was from 81-85. If you guys can you should check out Frankfurt, Heidelberg Castle and The Black-forest… Those were some of my favorite places to visit when I was there.. I actually got to go over to East Germany when the wall was still up… I have a stupid question you guys are spending 100 dollars a day that doesn’t include lodging right? I told you it was a stupid question., Wow you guys are living a dream good for you.. Thank you for sharing it with me and others.. Safe travels and God bless
