Hungry

What I don't like from here is that you have to have lunch at 12:00, and the food is regular, in quantity and quality. This means that, more or less at 16:00 I am hungry again, so I ate at, let's see, 17:00 but I only have the custom of 3 meals a day, therefore I don't eat again in the rest of the day, if so, I might eat sandwiches twice a day, and 4 pieces of bread is too much. I have to think in deep about my meals.

London

I have been in London for five days. And as I like to pretend being original, this blog entry WILL NOT BE CALLED "LONDON CALLING"!

Also, I will not say that my favorite place was the big ben or some alternative cool bar where I listen to a band you have never heard of.

What I liked the most from London was the British Museum, for two reasons: first, they have wonderful and unique ancient pieces from almost every culture along the world. And second, they have wonderful and unique ancient pieces from almost every culture along the world! This means the british empire is one of the biggest looters in history.

The one impressed me the most was a wall scene about lion hunting in Assyria. The guys catch lions and then put them in an arena for the King to hunting them. The king was not in any danger, as he was protected for a line of soldiers with shields in case it happens the lions get mad.

Michael Jackson

Walking randomly in Munich center I arrived here, below a statue of Orlande de Lassus, in front of Bayerischer Hof, a spontaneous Michael Jackson Memorial can be found. After a quick search on internet, Orlande de Lassus was a Franco-Flemish composer of the late Renaissance. Why is the memorial situated here? it is not related with the guy but with the Bayerischer Hof, a Munich's five stars hotel where Michael Jackson once stayed.







The place is here, you can walk from Marienplatz easy.

¡Vamos Chile!

Colorful sunday lunch

Lettuce and carrot salad, Chicken with chives, paprika, garlic and rice with carrots, also known as "Daí's Basic". Also I bought this coffee in the supermarket, it is like 70 euro cents, now I can drink cold and cheap coffee even on Sunday.

Crepes in Tollwood

Last week I went to Tollwood. It is a festival in Munich, there are two: one in winter, in the same place as Oktoberfest, and another one in summer, which is in olympiapark. They have beer gardens and also places for eating. Also they have stands to buy musical instruments and clothes. Along the day there are several activities, like theater or music.





They have places with meat, kebab and also crepes. That day I ate crepes, it had been a while since I ate crepes. In this place there were nice white dressed girls making crepes, there was a long queue, I remember I was talking like a spanish tourist. Crepes were not that expensive, from 2 to 4 euro, depending how many ingredients, but they did not have many varieties. In Santiago I remember I ate crepes in a little place in Bellavista, the party neighborhood, I remember they had a nice one with a mustard-honey salad. I could not find it here, unfortunately. But I tried one with some liquor I don't remember the name.










In the night there are concerts, some of them for free and another ones you have to pay, they are inside tents so the rain should not be a problem (it rains a lot in summer in München bei Garching). Next week will play Buena Vista Social Club Orchestra or something like that, with Omara Portuondo. Well, Compay and Ibrahim already passed away, you know.

As far as I understood, each tent had a thema. You can see this was arranged like... eh... Asia, I guess. They had shisha, baskets from I don't know where, indian essences and also a band played african music but when I arrived they had already finished.








The places for drinking looked very nice at night!. the place is open until 2:00 more or less, you can even dance in some tents.





The truth is, I went there just for a couple of hours and I made few pictures, I hope I can go again.
