MÜñchëÑ - City of People

Munich, the Captal of Bavaria, is a wonderous collage of gardens, old grand stone buildings (also 'heavy'), bicylcles and gorgeous blue skies.

In contrast to the town, and Germany, of today is Dachau - the first Nazi concentration camp, built in 1933. It was a cold drizzling day we chose to wander the Role Call Yard. The wind turned the cold to ice and it was impossible to imagine, comprehend or even believe what went on here not so long ago. Very overcrowded living, torture, medical experiements, killings.


Mel, Kel and Jimmy Barnes (living in Munchen who was good enough to host us for a few evenings. And a great host he was too.) Mel and Kel wear traditional Derndals and Jim wears the Lederhosen. To the Weisn! (Oktoberfest!).
