Ahoy polloi (an island for the masses)

next very special area is the hidden and not well known source of water everybody talks about in that city. You have to find it, it is really hard to find, but is said is has power to (whatever.) See the beerbanks in front of the building? In summer students sit there and have a break of lessons while seeing the alps.

Me neither:sad: I wish I could have snapped the beauty of that place... as the best part is to come now:

I decided not to leave without taking at least a few pictures of MY personal moste beloved place, the garden of the monks with the buildings the monks lived in. In summer this is the most amazing place ever. I'll explain later why.

See the number on the building? Since then the house stands there. In earlier times there were monks living in it. Now it's part of a research center for ... yes... ummm... well... something with enviromental protection.
Beautiful and peaceful!:smile:
 
After taking tons of pictures we decided to hunt down the Weisswurst, but not without taking a picture of the rest of the old part of Weihenstephan with a view to the old part of the universitiy for...ermm... anything with polution and geobotanic.

I spend afternoons and afternoons there, waiting for my father to finish his lectures... in anything with polution and geobotanics;)

And especially for Mariapia, here is a little white bear and then there is the picture of the Beer-bear of Freising and how the garden looks like in summer and how the Brewery looks like if there is no fog. And, last but not least, the trophy of my hunt: white sausages. On the airport!!


With a warm and friendly happy new year from the eldest brewery I'll close my picture greetings;)

Thank you! Yours is so cute too!

Ah the bag...I literally schlepp it with me everywhere... There was a note in it, saying "happy new year" that I wanted to post in a picture but then my middleagedbrain was too overwhelmed with my plans not working as I thought they would work. So it#s a hidden happy new year note ;)
 
Thank you SO much for the lovely guided tour.
Can really picture myself there with you!
Love the "beer-bear" [emoji173]

come here! :love: We will search the hidden watersource and have a beertasting. Freising is full of bears. We have a beerbear and a gaybear and a telephonebear and a funky bear and a holy bear and a cheesebear and a cakebear and a bear for children to ride on and an orphanbear and a flowerbear... there are lots of them.
 
Happened to me as well, my dog was the target and it took me hours to calm him down.:nuts::nuts:
No crowds for me either.
Selling firectackers is forbidden now but I don't know if it applies to Christmas season only.
Poor dog. My aunt's dog is totally scared about fireworks.
Ladies, I suppose you remember the stories of my Nat&Nin and Gérard Darel bags which I gave to my nieces...Yesterday, my brother told me that....the two girls nearly went into a fight on Christmas Day..
I didn't understand it all but it seems they wanted the same bag.:eek:
Which? I was so hurt and angry that I didn't ask....
I told my brother that should I decide to part with one of my bags, I would give it to someone else.
I can't believe this happened.:nuts:
I would be so mad. Do you happen to know which bag they are fighting about? This is stupid. :(
brave you were! Nobody could force me leaving the house one day after christmas :biggrin:
We were younger... And optimistic. :)
Kids.
Doesn't matter how old they are, they all revert to being 6 years old around the holidays.
Hubbie isn't much different.
Christmas seems to dredge up lots of feelings and makes many overly emotional.
So sorry this happened.
I promise not to fight with Ludmilla or Remainsilly if you gift us with bags [emoji6][emoji173][emoji7]
Yep. Promised. No fighting. :D
They are spoilt girls.
My SIL ( their mother) has one or two bags only. I knew that if I gave her one, her daughters would take it from her anyway.
Sometimes I think about moving to a desert island or something of the kind...:hrmm:
I am ready to fetch some cigarettes at the moment. In Nova Scotia. You can come with me.
Ok, here we go.

Stood up today morning and overall there was ... fog.

So I had the greatest idea ever, to go there personally, take a few pictures and then have a pretty Frühschoppn at the Weihenstephaner Bräu.
Was thinking it would be great to post a few pictures of Bavarian white sausages and Obatzdn (there is really no translation to be found). Unfortunately they were closed so I had to run around on my hunt to 2 white sausages. No luck in the city, no luck at the supermarket, no luck at the butchers (plural!), so we decided to pick up little daughter and go to the airport. Finally got my Frühschoppen.

We start with the first stop the research brewery,a building on its own. Obviously somenbody did too much research ;)
Thise pics are so cool. :) Never seen the brewery of Weihenstephan irl. Hehehe. The bike! I wonder if the prof/student sleeps in the library, because he forgot to get out before the building was closed for the holidays. ;)
Glad you got your Frühschoppen before 12 o'clock. ;)
