Plane trips from Australia always seem interminable, probably because they are. Anyway, suffice to say we didn't have to bad a time. Seen pretty well all the films, but in the longer leg i watched a load of romcom rubbish called That Means War. My word Rhys Witherspoon is good in Wild, but this did no one any favours
Adding a 4 hour train trip might seem a bad idea but we were able to check in straight away into the hotel over the road from the station and head out into the cloudless blue day in search of beer and bagel. Found a seat in the sun.. bonus.
Following a few pieces of advice we walked to the English Gardens, passing through the Hof Garden where we could hear beautiful cello music. We came across the busker in the wonderfully acoustic rotunda. Haven't seen many buskers around, and the ones we do see are not amplified which I take as a good sign. My favourite was the gold "statue" sitting on his pedestal taking a smoking break. Missed the photo op.
English Gardens are extraordinary - and not just because of the nude sunbathers in the middle of everyone at a city park. The scale is enormous, we didn't get all the way around. We got as far as the Chinese Tower and contrary to expectations had a cup of peppermint tea in the beer garden around it before heading back to town.
Fatigue setting in and we just went to bed early and had a looooong good night's sleep.
