Wanderlust Wednesday: A Few Views of Munich

Posted on by February 23, 2019

Work took me to Germany in late 2012. I’ve already written about the food I ate, Christmas Markets, and train travel from Munich to Bonn on the ICE (click to read my posts). Here are a few nutty photos from around Munich. I’m looking forward to going back.
