Hazy Shade of Winter

We tried to hold off Winter as long as possible, but it finally blanketed Munich today with our first snow. Temperatures dropped below freezing, and even during the couple hours of sun today, you could tell the season had changed. By this time last year, Munich already had about a month of snow, so we are thankful for a bit of an Indian Summer. But the good news, is that we are so much closer to the ski season. An ice rink just opened up in Karlsplatz, and most of the local Christmas Markets open next weekend. You can get the latest on Munich Winter reports at Munich.de or at the Bayern Tourist site
