I leave Tuesday - will get to Salzburg Thursday. I'll pack this weekend which shouldn't be hard since the suitcase will be mostly empty.
So to make sure I stay healthy I will be:
1. drinking wine
2. drinking beerenpunsch
3. add a schuss
4. chestnuts (need some good protein)
5. waffle with berries
6. eat kartoffelpuffer
With a good dose of walking in between as recommended by my doctor.
Any other health notes I need to take?

Of course.

Start out early in the day and do 1 to 6 as quickly as you can. Then have a lie down somewhere. It is important to rest. Wake up and start again. This. is called "elevenses" or "brunch".
Obviously with all this healthy living you are entitled to a little self-gratifacation. So go to cake shop and buy some cakes. This is a great opportunity to show off your local language skills. " Zwei Schwartzwalderkirshtorte mit schlage " should do it.
Then lunch.
Repeat the morning exercise then dinner. Repeat again, then supper.
This is called the rhythm method.

Yes .... it's very popular in the uk as well ..... farmers grow it as a cattle feed .......
I've never see it at a market ...
If we need green I guess creme de menthe punch?
Gurken with the bratty?

I'm sure I can accommodate that request.
Oh yes, definitely want a balanced diet.
Currently twiddling my thumbs waiting for my ride to the airport. Empty suitcases are ready to be checked.

Let's see how I did today
One gluhwein
One Schichler gluhwein - because I needed the different fruit varieties
The bread at lunch had nuts in it
Two gluhwein mit rum up at the Fortresss
Two quartinos of red Wein at dinner plus cabbage salad
Apfelstrudel
And absach
I believe I have met my goal today.
I will try extra hard tomorrow just to make sure.

It was very magical yesterday, especially last night up at the Fortress with the snow gently coming down as we looked out at the city. It feels like one big party with friends - new and old.

We did our best today to compare gluhwein stalls here in Munich. It was a challenge but someone needed to do it.
