Today was a busy day!!! Hard not to share lots of photos. Me and a girlfriend drove down to Munich today. It happened to be the wettest day ever...with some snow mixed in!!! Took us a little while to get downtown then when leaving we ran into the parade of the German Olympic athletes! Unfortunately I was driving at the time, but my friend got some pics of the athletes arriving.
This is the Victory Gate (1852) in Munich
View of Virgin Mary (1638) in Mariensplatz with the Glockenspiel in the background...Can you see the rain??
Mariensplatz - Setting up for the Olympic athletes reception in downtown Munich at the town hall.
Odeonsplatz - Entrance where the athletes arrived...hard to tell here, but there were loads of people all over the sides of the road and square. Munich is bidding for 2018 Olympics, hence the hot air balloon.
Cameramen waiting for the Olympic athletes to arrive.
Arriving home in the dark....to the mountains being snowed upon.
