Partnachklamm

Our last excursion was to Partnachklamm - an area with caves about an hour and a half from Munich.  The trip turned out to be ok.  First, we took an hour and a half train ride from Hauptbahnhof.  On the train, we wrote goodbye messages to each other.  We each had a piece of paper with our name on it, and we passed it around for everyone to sign (Thanks Hilson for the idea).  Once we got off the train, we walked for maybe 45 minutes to reach the entrance to Partnachklamm.  The caves weren't as exciting as I was expecting.  It was along a river, and we just walked on a narrow pathway through a few caves in the side of the cliff.  Walking to the end of the caves took a very short amount of time.  Here is a little of what it looked like.  In the top picture, you can see the pathway and caves on the left.



 Once we walked through the caves, we had about an hour to walk around wherever we wanted and eat lunch.  Unfortunately, it started raining pretty hard.  We have a nice picture of four of us sitting on a (Mexican) plastic bag under our umbrellas to eat lunch.

Then we went back to meet the group to walk back, and we got a picture of all of us wearing our hoods. 


We had to jog a little to catch the train, but we made it right on time.  I enjoyed a nice nap on the way back.  Once we got off the train, I gave my goodbye hugs to almost everyone - I still was going to see some people at a concert that night.
