Day 29

Another weekend of no sleep, but it was well worth it. Anjali and I arrived in Munich around 6 am and bought coffee and croissants to start our day. We walked to our hostel which was conveniently located 10 minutes away from the station. We rested in the lobby until 8 am and then hopped on the tram to head to the Dachau Concentration Camp. It was very difficult to experience, but informative nonetheless. The dehumanization and maltreatment those involved endured and suffered through is awful. We walked through the exhibition room, barracks, crematorium, and gas chambers. I learned a lot. After we saw everything there was to see, we made our way to the New Town Hall (first picture) located in the Marienplatz square. The gothic architecture is stunning. We grabbed lunch (a pretzel, potato salad, and beer) in the Viktualienmarkt. We walked around for a bit and checked into our hostel at 3 pm and napped for a few hours. We ate dinner (I had curry sausage) and then sat down at Hofbrauhaus (the beer hall). It was so cool inside and the beer was quite large but good. After finishing our drinks, we went out for a few hours. It was a good day and a lot was accomplished.
