After 12 hours long flight, I finally arrived Munich international airport in the evening. Marcus and Nicole from Weihenstephan picked me up in the airport and we had dinner together afterwards, the authentic Bavarian food: sausage, Cheese, and beer of course.
"Is there any Germany who actually can not drink beer?" I'm just curious...
"Haha..."Marcus laughed by my question, "probably you can not find one among whole Europeans."
We headed to the hotel after dinner. It was just a short drive.
Green, and traditional, is my first impression to Bavaria.

Today we had a day trip to Neuschwanstein, the place we can actually see in the Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland.
Followed by a guided tour, we went inside the castle with a comprehensive introduction of the history. The truth behind the fairy tale castle is not romantic at all. King Ludwig II never has the chance to finish the construction of his dream house.
We came back to Munich city for dinner after sight seeing. Marcus drive me through the venue the world famous Munich Oktoberfest is going to be held. It's like ten times bigger than our Shanghai Oktoberfest. All the tents have been set up though it is still one and half months before. How I wish I can experience the party in Munich in person!
