Bier

The Breakfast of Champions!

A gentleman sitting next to us acquired two beers, two glasses of orange juice, and a latte with his scrambled eggs. (We were attempting to get combobulated after our flight, so we enjoyed time in the Munich lounge hoping to down some caffeine in order to adjust to a new schedule.) That is one of the things I always loved about travel through Germany. There is bier für früstück.

Did I mention free? It’s free in the lounge, so it’s almost required that one of German descent consider the digestive benefits of beginning the morning with a swig. To quote a famous line from ye olde sing-alongs, “In heaven there is no beer, that’s why we drink it here. And when we’re gone from here, our friends will be drinking all our beer.” And they have just brought a rack of Bavarian pretzels for our breakfast pleasure!

Prost!
