Default Going to Germany and German F1 GP

It'll be a 2 week long trip from july 26 to aug 9 and i'll be at Hockenheim on race day with 2 of my friends.

This is what an F1 ticket looks like if some ppl have not seen it yet


We'll also be in the Frankfurt AM area, Berlin, and Munich areas and my friends will be going to Amsterdam for a few days (i'm not).

so, is there anything interesting to see in Berlin and Munich besides the Berlin wall?

be sure to take the trains to the south to Garmish Partenkirchen (sp?) to the mountain, and even though it's very touristy... to Crazy Ludwig's castle (Neuschwanstein Castle)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuschwanstein

just a train ride away and mabey a taxi/rental from Munchen

take lotsa photos

oh, and in Munchen... go to the Hofbra Haus http://www.hofbraeuhaus.de/en/index_en.html the worlds greatest tavern; and be sure to order a "true" pint

have fun!

I would, but I don't have a car and none of us can rent one cause none of us are 21.
