So here it is..... the Monday before our much anticipated departure for Germany, and there is still soooo much to do! We were lucky to spend some nice time with various friends and family before heading off, so we have definitely been spending our time very well!
We've also been doing research on weather in Munchen, and it appears we will experience both rain and snow once there.... Live Webcams also indicate that there is snow on the rooftops, so a romantic chill has already dressed the city for us...
I have been warned by Bernhard and his parents that December will be very grey and cold, and likely not so pretty... which is a good set up! Therefore any light, warmth or sparkle will come much appreciated. I do think there will be a certain charm to the cold, and was fortunate enough to have found a couple of pictures of winter markets that seem quite appealing (as long as I have the right attire to keep my wimpy Californian bones warm)... Fortunately, my family treated us to hats, scarves and mittens, so we should be well enough prepped!
I don't have a lot to say at this point but am looking forward to filling this blog with tons of yummy pictures and commentary as rich as the spezzle once we're there!
Looking eagerly forward to our takeoff!
Bernhard and Amy
Have fun and maybe see you there! I'm heading back on Saturday!
