Day 01, Monday, Munich

I had an empty seat next to me going to Dubai and again to Munich, both in an Airbus 380. Great!

Weather here is raining, 13C, just like what I left in Melbourne. I bought an umbrella, and found the AirBnB OK. Good thing I captured a screen shot of the Munich rail system while I was on the free wifi at the airport. Of course, the young couple in the other room here are from Melbourne. I couldn’t get the Spanish Orange SIM from Ebay to register, but the backup Irish Vodafone SIM works perfectly, and I have an Irish phone number +353 87 146 1459 and 200MB of data per day for 3€, about 1/7 the cost of the best deal I could find 3 years ago.

AirBnB at Leibengerstrasse 19A, Riem, Bavaria. Each of those cases weighs 17 kilos.
