Our AMS-MUC connection on KLM was delayed 45 minutes. After arrival and claiming our bags we met Peter from BMW who escorted us first to the ADAC, which is an agency similar to AAA and allows US members to receive similar savings (thanks Jeff). We received the requisite bright yellow safety vest (one per auto in Austria) as well as paid toll vignettes for Austria and Switzerland. We were also given several complimentary maps to various places in Germany.
Peter then drops us at the Marriott Renaissance Munich where we drop our bags and immediately head out to the Augustiner beer hall where we enjoyed traditional Bavarian fare – pretzels, pork, and a liter of beer. Jeff and Chad had the Lager and I had the Dark.
We then nap for a couple of hours and decide more beer is in order so we headed out to the original Hoffbrauhaus for dinner.
Time for bed. Peter is picking is up at 8am for our ride to the BMW Welt for delivery.
