This morning I went with Marion to the BMW museum and factory. Unfortunately, once we got there we found out the real museum was closed for renovations until Spring 2008 but there was a temporary exhibition in the Olympic Park across the street. We went there, paid out 2€ and got to see about 25 BMWs throughout the ages. After we finished, I bought my first BMW straight from the factory... a scale model of an E92 (I think) 2006+ BMW 3-Series Coupe. Even if it did fit in my bag, I still bought my first BMW from the factory, right?
After BMW we wandered around the Olympic Park (site of the 1972 Summer Olympics)... it was funny how it was designed to look "natural" but still had a lot of very German order to the locations, arrangement and shapes of the lakes and trees. Those orderly Germans!
In the afternoon, we met up with the rest of the program for guided tours of the central city. It was supposed to be a three hour tour but our tour guide wasn't really saying anything that wasn't readily apparent ("This is a market. Villagers and visitors can buy fruits and vegetables here.") After about half an hour, I got so bored with the tour that I left with a couple other people. We wandered around the city some more before meeting up with our tour group again at the end.
That night we went back to Augustiner Keller and after a couple Maß a group of Americans at another table invited us to join them. I don't have any idea who these people were or even their names but it was pretty fun to just randomly join with other people like that.
