Feeding our Brains





In order to distract ourselves yesterday from our somewhat sore heads and flagging energy, we headed over to the museum district to check out the new Museum Brandhorst and afterwards to the Pinakothek der Moderne, where we spent an hour looking through the product design galleries.

The first photo is a picture of an electric water boiler from France, made at the turn of the century. Looks a bit different than the one that I received as a Christmas present this year. ;-)

I liked the BMW motorcycle from 1928 - somehow a cross between a bicycle and a motorbike.

The green room was interesting - a room brightly lit with these green lights. Your eyes play a trick on you when you are inside of it - the white walls outside look pink when you are standing in the room. But the green light didn't fool the camera...although there is a bit of a pink tinge to the white.

Finally - we called it quits when we saw Gerd and Delphine collapsed on the steps towards the end of the day. ;-)

Headed out for Afghani food last night, which our guests enjoyed a lot.

Today: off for massages and sauna near Tegernsee and then...probably...ethiopian food for dinner.

And then one more day of vacation...ouch.
