The long way home

Another friend was able to visit us, at least for a short while. Kevin, a fellow Rice alumni, has been working for the past 6 months in Australia, and decided to take the long way home – through Hong Kong, Munich, London, Dublin, and finally back to Ohio. Unfortunately, Kyle ended up with some sort of flu thing (rotavirus?) the one whole day Kevin was here, so I’m afraid he didn’t get the usual tour. Though he has been to Munich before, so hopefully not too much harm done. We went up to the top of St. Peters for an overview (Kyle and I have decided this is an absolute must for all visitors to Munich – and at only 1.50 euro quite the deal – you just have to be sure to save it for a clear day). Afterwards off to the Olympic Park and the top of the teufelsberg there for a different view of the city. Kyle was still definitely out of commission, so we headed on over to the See Haus to drink some beer and catch up on what we knew of other alumni, before heading over to the Augustiner restaurant for some more beer (Maximator – ‘tis the season) and some food. Hopefully Kevin had a good time, despite only having one host ;)
