We went to Munich for a doctor's appointment for Nicole and expected to be in the country less than 24 hours, so Nicole didn't take her camera. Because our visit was extended, she took most of the photos we got using my camera. She got some great shots.

| We took the train which was quite easy and reasonably inexpensive. It had German and English announcements except when it was really important information, like: we're not stopping at the station the Canadians want to get off at! |
 |
| Alte Pinakothek Art Museum We saw many paintings by Rueben, Rembrant, Durer and others; some the size of a sheet of computer paper and others 15' wide and 20' tall (at least). |
