    Phrases to learn:

    Ein altebierbowle bitte.

    Ein berliner bitte.

    You should be good :tongue:

    Of course, that could just be me, but I miss both of those terribly.

    To all - anyone know what the weather is like in March? I've looked it up online but can't seem to get a good idea. How should I dress? Looks like it's in the 40s and 50s possibly?

    I live in San Antonio Texas and don't have a lot of cooler weather clothing. (Used to live in Illinois but got rid of the cold weather stuff!)

    March weather varies enormously in Munich. Can be sunny and warm but you can easily also get a snow storm. Bring layers.

    That was my plan. Just afraid I'll over pack. I tend to do that...

    If you get a chance, go see Neuschwenstein Castle. It's absolutely gorgeous! I did a 9 day Trafalgar tour through Austria and Germany and one of my highlights was the castle they based the Disney castle on (Neuschwenstein).

    The only thing is you can't take photos inside (but plenty of photos outside). You can also stand on a rickety bridge to get a spectacular view of the castle as well.

    Oh, don't forget the Hofbrauhaus in Munich! Go for the litre stein! Ohhh..... I love me some German beer. *droooool*

    If you like science-y stuff, check out the very large Science Museum. I spent 4 hours in that museum, it was awesome.

    Buy some Birkenstocks shoes as well, they're quite cheap in Munich (50-60 euros) which is very reasonable compared to internationally.

    Go on a walking tour as well, they're great fun. Got to see Mozart's place!

    Berchtesgarden (Hitler's holiday resort area) is quite pretty too, if you can get a bus to there.

    Weather in Munich rides a roller coaster any month of the year LOL
    Layers, definitely wear layers!

    Neuschwanstein and Linderhof (please Google these two!) are both uniquely beautiful castles.

    I also enjoyed going to Kloster Andechs for some fantastic beer, bread, and cheese.

    Spent the rest of my time in the mountains. Zugspitze (borders Austria) has a nice beer garden on top.

    If you make it to Austria, you may want to break out in your best Julie Andrews voice singing, "The hills are alive, with the sound of music..." :wink:
