Here are a couple of things that me and my coworkers did while we were in Munich besides attending the sports engineering conference.
We took the subway a lot. I love public transportation in big cities. And for the most part, I feel a little bit safer using public transportation in Europe as opposed to America. The subways here are waaaaaaaaaayyyyyy underground, as the picture of the escalator shows.
We went to the famous Hofbrauhaus to watch the runner up match between Germany and Portgual. The Germans won, and were very happy about their World cup performance.
We went to the Deutches Museum, which documents every technology that humans have discovered, from paper to pharmaceuticals. Here, I am standing in front of an airplane engine on display.
We also did some work. Here, we are talking about work stuff during halftime at the Hofbrauhaus.
We went to the Augstiner Keller beer garden to watch the world cup finals match between France and Italy.
We also took a tour of the major highlights of Munich. There is a statue of the Greek god Nike in town. How appropriate =)
This is Marienplatz, the city center of Munich.
Our conference was located at Olympic Park, where the 1972 Summer Olympics were held. It was a beautiful place, although it didn't have any air conditioning =(
