After Mike got out of class today, we headed to the Virktualienmarkt for lunch. You can get lachs sandwiches there. Mike’s mom and dad make them every year for Christmas, and we wanted to try the real German version. It’s a sandwich with smoked salmon and onions. I am not going to lie, the texture is very odd for me and I can never really eat a whole one. They are REALLY good, but the fish has the texture of sashimi. But after poking around the market again and buying dinner, we went over to Peterskirche. (A kirche is German for church.) The church is very beautiful and ornate. You can climb up the towers to see the city from above. It was a very tight climb up, which was slightly stressful at times since the walkway is meant for two-way traffic. But we got to the top, and the view was wonderful. The town hall in Munich is absolutely beautiful. It has a massive glockenspiel that is at about eye level from the top of the towers. We couldn’t see the Alps because it was too hazy, but it was great to see the city. There are lots of other towers in Munich to climb and we have a lot of days left to climb them!
