Day 4 - Feel the Thrill

It's Sunny!

And as a result, we get to climb the Top of Germany - Zugspitze.


Well, not literally climb because we didn't have the time (and warmth) to but a 10 min ride on the cable car was enough to get us all thrilled about the splendid view from the mountain top.


Snow-capped mountains stretches all the way to the horizon and you can vividly identify a handful of skiers.


Did I mention there's a frozen lake on the other side of the mountain?


Lunch was on a rotating platform right beside the olympic stadium - Restaurant 181. As the name suggests, we are 181 metres above the ground. Had a set meal and it tasted awesome. Especially the dessert.


After a brief tour of the olympic stadium, we arrived at the Allianz Arena, home ground of Bayern Munich. The lawns here are really treated like kings - amidst the cold weather they get a bath of artificial sunlight!


During the guided tour, we had the opportunity to walk down the aisle where players enter the soccer field, with the heart pounding music et al. It was an unforgettable sensation.


Dinner was at the airport and we were rather fortunate to find a brewery that sells fresh beer - Airbrau. It looked as cloudy as Weißbier and had a stronger taste than München Hell. But I still prefer the original Hell.

And also for the last time, I savoured those famous German white sausages, fresh.
