Trip to Regensburg

        At approximately 9 am we arrived in the 2nd biggest Bavarian city - Regensburg. After having some coffee, we joined a guided tour through the city. It was an extraordinary tour since Regensburg is a very old town. Afterwards, we went to a Bavarian museum and our guide was a brilliant old lady who made her story sound like a fairytale.Special impression left a story about Bavarian kings - Max I, Ludwig I, Max II, Ludwig II. Basically, they were just enjoying life, building castles, kept getting remarried and came up with the idea of October fest. Also, one of them even left the throne because of his girlfriend and when she left him, he regretted his decision and asked his son for the throne back. After hearing more stories about BMW and Bavarian beer, we went to get some burgers and got back to the hostel.
