Well today we will travel on another mode of transport. We will be flying Lufthansa to Munich. I have been booking our taxis with booking.com which is working out very easy and quite competitive in cost. You get a message to say taxi is on its way, the driver’s name and number, it arrives and they bill your account. All very easy.

We fly out from Berlin at 10.30am and arrive at Munich at 11.40am. Next step to pick up the hire car, which goes by without a hitch. Then the next challenge. To drive on the wrong side of the car, on the wrong side of the road, in a foreign country. After a bit of practice around the carpark, we were out on the main road travelling at 100kmh. It was okay, not as stressful as last time but it required a lot of concentration.

Our first stop for the day is the Dachau Concentration Camp. This was easier said than done, as there was a road closed and we couldn’t get there. We had to go way off course to go the extra long way. We finally made it there at about 2.30pm.

It was a bleak day, it was a very interesting afternoon. They had a couple of barracks displaying the furniture, bunks, etc. There was a couple of churches, gas chambers, crematorium, graveyards, guard posts. It was a dreary day and it felt like it was suitable for the destination.

Then we headed to our hotel in Dachau.
