EXCURSION Day 2


After a night stay at our quaint hotel and some extremely good, Bavarian, and complementary breakfast we headed off to Munich.  Our day started off to a sorrowful morning at the Dachau concentration camp.  Although this was a work camp for the prisoners it was just as brutal and harsh as the other camps.  From just walking through the grounds one could feel the difference in the environment around you from all of the violence and pure cruelty of what had taken place in this area.  But from there we cheered the day up by going to the BMW Welt and 72' Munich Olympic Stadiums.
The Olympic Stadiums were very nice and from a distance they look as if they had huge cranes lifting up a sheet of glass stretched over.  This stadium is a mix between high tech and expressionist architecture.
