Well, we left our hotel in Munich and are currently on a train on our way to Salzburg. Le Meridien Munchen is such a nice hotel. The sheets and bed were really comfortable. Perhaps we were just extremely tired but we slept like a rock. The bathroom was also really nice as it came equipped with a nice and large bathtub along with a separate shower. The hotel was even nice enough to accommodate our request for a room without a scent as we read online that they place incense in every room. It could not be in a better location as the train station was directly across the street. We definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who plans to travel to Munich.
Today, we have big plans! We are going to our old apartment to get settled in and are then headed to the city center to visit our good friend at the internet café that we always go to. Lunch will be at Afro Café, one of our very favorite restaurants in Salzburg, where we will share chicken wrap with fries and mango ketchup. Later we are going to head to Oberndorf for the big Christmas eve celebration at the chapel where silent night was written and first performed. Oberndorf is a tiny town on the German-Austrian border. Although it is located in Austria, if we cross the river we would be in Germany. After the silent night chapel, we are going back to Salzburg where we have dinner reservations at an Italian restaurant followed by midnight mass in the old Cathedral. Although we are not Catholic, we were told that this should not be missed. It is a good thing the coffee is really good here because we are going to need it in order to stay up so late!!
We will post more later…
