Baby's Armor
Last night at the laundromat, we heard from a Texan law student about the terrorist attack in London. Bummer. That means security will be crazy tight at the airport and well have to get there super early. Oh well.
It's a nice day, and we’re heading back to Munich using autobahns only. No more crazy mountain roads for us, thanks! The law student we met suggested we go visit Schloss Ambras, which is an old castle on a hill. He attended a function there and said it was really nice.
They had a great collection of armor and weapons. They even had a set of armor for a tiny tot, as well as a set of armor for an 8 foot man. There were also portrait galleries of many of the royalty figures of Europe. We hit the grocery store earlier, so we ate a little lunch before heading back to the autobahn for Munich.
By the time we got to Munich, it was still early afternoon, so we decided to hit an old monastery for lunch. Boy was it an ordeal finding it. There were no directions to get there other than the basic map we had from Avis. For some reason, the traffic through the city at 1:30pm on a Thursday was awful. We had to ask directions, and finally, got there an hour later. But we were STARVING!
We hiked up the hill to the restaurant. The food was super super good and the views from the outside terrace were fabulous. But when we went to the church, we found it had totally been rebuilt and wasn't really old at all. It was pretty gaudy inside, but interesting.
When we finally got to the airport hotel, I was relieved to find they had a room for us. We weren’t sure what we were going to do if they were booked. We took Sophie swimming in the pool, which she loved. Then we ate dinner at the hotel, but Sophie was so wild, I couldn’t really eat. She just needed to go to sleep.
It was so nice having cribs in every hotel. What a life saver. I couldn’t imagine her in the bed with us. She slept just great in the cribs the whole time.
