The Allisons

We drove to Munich after we visited Dachau. We didn't really have a plan (except our mandatory meal at Hard Rock Cafe), but aimed for the middle of town. Luckily, we found a parking garage that was near Hard Rock and we just walked around until it was time to eat.
We saw some church spires and decided to go check that out. We sat in that plaza for a while and listened to a quartet playing classical music.
Then we went to a couple of parks before making our way back to Hard Rock.
Hofbrauhaus, the biggest and most famous beer joint in the world was right next door. We declined to partake in a beverage there, but we did walk in and snap a picture. With the beer flowing, and an oom-pah band playing away it created an atmosphere one would expect from such an infamous, German beirgarten.
After we ate at Hard Rock, we drove back to the hotel in Garmisch. It's at this point, that I would like to tell about our autobahn experience. Mike was driving and I could feel the testosterone oozing from him as he pushed the pedal of our shiny, red, Fiat Panda (rental) to hit 170 kph. That's as fast as our tiny little car would go, and we were frequently passed. However, when the speed limit went back down to 120 kph, you could literally see cars hit their brakes. Apparently Germans obey every speed limit. If we missed a speed limit sign, we would suddenly see the other cars take off and find ourselves alone on the autobahn. We had to quickly increase our speed to avoid getting run over. It was fun.
The next day we rode a cable car (the Wankbahn) to the top of a mountain in Garmisch. When we reached the top, we were pleasantly surprised to find a meadow complete with grazing horses and cows. They wore bells on their necks which added to our alpine experience.
