We got up and walked around Augsburg some more, this time finding the Red Tor (but everything is closed on Monday). Then checked out and caught the 11:56 ICE train to Munchen Hauptbahnhof (main train station). It's an easy trip, about 1/2 hour, and our hotel this time -- the Pension Am Hauptbahnhof -- is literally 1 block from the train station. We are on familiar ground here.
We went down to Marienplatz to try to find out if there are any Maibaum celebrations here. There is just one that they knew of, as Tuesday the 1st is their Labor Day and there are going to be lots of political speeches around the Rathaus. We were directed to one of the Augustiner Bier Halls on the other side of Hauptbahnhof and outside of the tourist district. I Googled it and there are actually two, but one has a bier garten and that is our best guess. We will head over in the morning to check it out.
We went down to Opatija for another awesome dinner, and ran into the Kosovar waiter who had taken such good care of Judy, Liz and Aaron a couple of weeks ago. I think he was shocked to see the crazy lady back again, this time with her husband. I asked some questions about Kosovo and got a very reserved response. So I backed off.
Back to the hotel for the night. We will see what tomorrow brings!
