activities to the bare minimum. Next time, we'll have to set something up.
at least you haven't done the "Europe in 7 days" tour. :-)
I've been there this year for my first time: I entered one entrance and
left about 15 minutes later on the other entrance, down to the subway,
headed away for a couple of stations and went to the German museum.
I really wanted to see that museum, but see above. There just wasn't time.
you need at least 1 day there,

and they have an outdoor division with some planes, too. This will
probably take another day.

And what was the (new?) perspective you won or learned?
The one thing I discovered (that surprised me) was that I don't actually
hate big cities -- I hate AMERICAN-style big cities.
and from the cultural perspective or from the way of living and doing
things?
Because there are no American-style suburbs around Munich, everyone actually
lives in the city -- which turns it into a lively, fun, and safe place to
live. I love the scale of the place (no skyscrapers), and could truly live
in Munich without any trouble
this is Munich, they are more relaxed than other cities in Germany (more

Sadly, the lack of GA in Germany would kill me. Markus gave us a good
primer of what it's like to fly in Germany, and it was truly depressing.
Yes, it's possible to own and fly your own plane, but the hassle level (and
costs) are truly breathtaking.
there are ways, of course, and you can't fly easily into the big
airports. ultra lights etc are more and more seen
