Smiley Re: Munich

Hey I'm back.

I've been in Munich on the hitchhiking competition, then in Poland, then after coming back to Ireland I didn't have much time to post in IW.

ElfBane, thanks for the info!

Anyway, we've managed to reach Munich from Sopot in 26 hours.

We came 22nd. And seeing how there were 162 teams registered this is a pretty decent result

We used 10 cars in total.

Out of the 162 registered, I think only 150-something started. Later we learnt that only 86 reached the destination, which is strange, seeing how getting to Munich isn't that difficult.

The winners reached there in just over 17 hours.

Anyway, overall it was great. We reached the place 2pm on Friday and were too tired to really go anywhere so we just strolled about the city centre a bit.

On saturday we went to see the Neuschwanstein. The place is great. Took us whole day though. We had planned to go back Sunday morning by train, but seeing how we haven't really seen anything in Munich yet we spent Sunday morning and afternoon visitng the city. Ween to the English Gardens, the German Museum, Residnz and few other places. At 4pm we started hitchhinking back home. Getting out of the city proved difficult and only after 6 we actually caught something but then evrything went smoothly and after 10am next day we were home.
