Today we started off by going to Dachau, a concentration camp here in Munich. It made everything I have learned in school all the past years more real. We did a guided through the whole camp and I learned a lot. The lady told us about all the things one could get punished for (like something as simple as losing a button on their shirt) They could even kill them for no reason at all and just say "They tried to escape." The camp we were at was meant to hold
Next we went to the BMW museum. So many cool cars!! One lady was driving a car around and you couldn't even hear it. Quietest car ever. It was really impressive. Then we went outside and looked at some motorcycles.
Lastly we headed over to Olympiapark where they held the 1972 Summer Olympics. It was the prettiest park I'd ever been to. We climbed up to the view point so we could see the whole thing. There was a carnival going on so there were rides, and games going on everywhere. In the middle was a little lake where they had paddle boats and other things to ride. Everyone was riding bikes, jogging, or just walking around looking at everything going on. The best part of the park was the waterballs. So much fun!! You get in this plastic ball, they pump air in it, and you get to run around on the water. Well kind of. You attempt to run but it's a lot harder then it looks so you just end up falling and rolling all over the place. We couldn't stop laughing.
We ended the day with some souvenir shopping and dinner at Henry's Deli (For the second night in a row.) Off to Copenhagen tomorrow!
