BMW and Beer Garden

This afternoon we visited the BMW world headquarters. Again, we could not take pictures inside. I can just tell you that almost everything they do is very automated! It was so cool to see the robots they use and learn about the processes they use on every step of assembling the car. This is a picutre of their headquarters building. They also have a museum and a technology center we got to explore. After we toured BMW we got to go to the one of the oldest beer gardens in Munich- it has been here for almost 700 years!!! There is a professor in Germany that used one of our professor's textbooks. As he was researching it, he found that our professor was traveling to Munich this summer and arranged a meeting. It was really neat to meet that professor and his students, not to mention see the oldest beer garden in this area! It has over 5,000 seats!

The beers are 1 liter each! They also have these drinks called radlers that are lemonaide mixed with beer...that is what I get, if I get beer at all. Here is our waiter carrying a bunch of drinks at once:

And here is what our food looks like. Not great! I got a cheese and bread tray and Mark got a sausage sampler tray. Not bad, but definitley not good!
