April 7, 2024,Nach Marathon-Arbeiten doch noch was Schönes 🌞😎🌞😎
Everything is sick and so it's work, work, work. Today after the early shift I met Claudia in the office and spontaneously decided to go for a walk in the English Garden 🌳🌞😎🌸.
To Munich on the S-Bahn. And what a surprise, hardly any people in the city 🤩
They're probably all in the country here. So everything was done …

We visited the English Garden in beautiful weather. I wouldn't have expected such a beautiful, large park in the middle of Munich.
The nature, the water, and the animals are a perfect blend and impressed us. We took our time and also walked around Lake Kleinhesseloher.
We enjoyed our break 🍗 🍻 in the beer garden 😋.

May 24, 2025,Nach Odeonsplatz
A short stroll through the city must be combined with a short hike. And this was the perfect place. As soon as you leave the city center, you're already in nature, close to the center. There are plenty of places to stop for a bite to eat and sit. But if you're looking for peace and quiet, this isn't the …

Walked a bit through the English Garden again today in 1A weather. Of course not without having visited the "Alten Peter" in advance.

Our hike began at Odeonsplatz and led us through the English Garden, past the Chinese Tower, the Monopteros, and Kleinhesseloher Lake, to the Hirschau beer garden. There, we took a relaxing break before taking a different route through the park back to Odeonsplatz—a delightful circular walk combining nature, culture, and Bavarian hospitality.

Conveniently with the 9 € ticket to Munich and drove directly to the English Garden. Of course, there was a lot going on at the Eisbach and at the well-known Eisbachwelle.
