Some family friends and us made a plan quite awhile ago to travel to Munich. Munich is a city in southern Germany. We went to see the Olympiaturm. The Olympiaturm is a huge tower. It is one of the tallest towers in Europe. At the top there is a rotating roof. We got to eat on it! The top floor is about 190 meters high. The very top is another hundred meters. You could see the whole city. The tower weighs about 52,500 tons. It takes 53 minutes for it to fully revolve. The Olympiaturm was made in 1968. It was made a few years in anticipation of the 1972 Olympics. The Olympiaturm is inside the Olympia Park. All the things in the Olympia Park were made because of the Olympics. Inside the park there are the Olympic swimming pools, tennis courts, and fields and we saw ice hockey too. While I was busy climbing hills and big trees with my friends, this is a photo my mom took of the Olympiaturm. We walked around Munich in the city center area, and we saw street performers and looked at the buildings. We ate Haagen Dazs ice cream and then that night we had German food. Sunday, March 11, 2012

So did you eat on top of the building or on the top floor? That building looks cool.
ReplyDeleteThat would have been funny if I ate on the very top! It was the top floor with a revolving restaurant.
ReplyDeleteDid it make you dizzy at all? Did you like the German food?
