We made it to our first tour of the day, the BMW Museum Tour.  Then, we hopped over to the Olympiaturm and had fabulous visibility.  Finally, we had to navigate the transit system to get to the BMW Recycling and Dismantling Tour - our first time for this program.  It was an AMAZING tour!

5/14/17: Free Day

All have been given up to 25€ to spend on activities, which we suggested - zoo, TV tower, museums...  They explored on their own and at their own pace.  I do apologize for the delay in this post as I am under the weather myself and spent most of the day recuperating in bed.

5/11/17: Strasbourg, France

We started the day around 10am and will finish around 8pm. We traveled by bus to Strasbourg, France (1'15").

Upon arriving we walked to UNESCO World Heritage Site, Grand Ilé.  We walked up the church tower, 330 steps.  Proceeded to get in a riverboat tour. Then, had free time to wander about with guide books to tell us about what we saw around us.  All enjoyed the French cuisine, interacting with the vendors, and the weather, which was pleasant in temperature and only slightly drizzly.
