We walked around the area near the train station in Munich, which consisted mostly of Arabic immigrants and university neighborhoods, and then tried to find a classic beer garden. We mixed up the directions a bit, but did find a brewery with a small beer garden that we sat in. After
some confusion with our non-English-speaking server, we got a nice big mug of beer and a basket of bread with some sort of cheese spread. We then took a tram line out to the campsite on the outskirts of the city (after a lot of confusion buying tram tickets with an extremely complicated system and a German-only speaking metro ticket agent – it turned out in the end that we didn’t need the tram tickets at all since they never checked – we never even validated them and just carried them on all the other trams without paying again). We camped in a large hostel/campground called simply “The Tent.” It included two big white tents, one with 50+ bunk beds and one with people just sleeping all over on the floor. We had been planning to sleep on the floor, but on seeing it we changed our mind – people were sleeping just everywhere and very close together. So we decided to set up our own little tent on the campground instead. Our hastily repaired tent (it had partially collapsed in Amsterdam) caved in again this evening, and we had to borrow duct tape to prop it back up and make it through the night.
