So after Nuremberg, it was off to Ulm, which is home to a close friend of mine and the highest church tower in the world (as far as we know).

This is the view from the base of the Ulmer Münster. You can't actually get a shot of the entire thing because it is too high and there are buildings in the way.
700+ steps later, we reached the top.

Part of the city

None of us could figure this out, but hell, it was funny. The town marketplace is at the base of the church and well there was a bright red couch in the middle.

The city building; über modern. The interior looks like the inside of an ibook.
After two nights in Ulm, it was off to Munich. We visited the German museum which had an exhibit about Albert Einstein (who was in fact born in Ulm, but his family moved from there when he was a few months old. There is a monument where his house used to be, but is now directly next to a McDonalds.)
There are no interesting pictures to report from our first day in Munich.
The next day we went to Schloss Nymphenberg - one of King Ludwig's many castles. It was ridiculous, but not particularly impressive.



6/25 paintings of the most beautiful women (according to Ludwig)
