Efficient rail into Marienplatz (as you'd expect in Germany) but unfortunately the early drizzle turned into steady rain. Had a wander around the Rathaus and watched the hourly display and glockenspiel with a damp crowd. A stroll through the market area brought us to Eataly, where an incredible array of Italian food and wine tempted us to stay in for a light lunch.
Back to hotel to meet our tour group - an eclectic mix, with us the only Aussies. Our Pommy leader, Rob took us back in for some sights we had already seen, so we escaped for another meander and dinner in another excellent Italian ...... I know, so much for experiencing Bavarian food; but we've done that before and so we much preferred to be eating with the locals and some really good food!
Heavy showers had us returning early to the hotel for a glass of Italian Pinot Grigio (what else ?) before retiring before the first of our early starts tomorrow. Beginning to understand why we haven't been on a bus tour for nearly forty years!
Marienplatz in the morning
Eataly for lunch ...... But of course!
