Thanks for sharing that David - it reminds me very much of my
times in Europe as a grad student. Milk in boxes - very exotic -
don't squeeze too hard as you open them. And I'll never forget
the sudden flash of insight as all that traffic came at me - "oh,
that's what einbahnstrasse means!"

Hi, David
Welcome in Munich or better in Garching (I think you will see that there
is a slight difference).
I am just looking out of my office window (in Garching direction and the
new soccer stadium) and ask me how it is possible that the world looks so
nicely different from Garching direction as it appears from your first
impressions (ID(a)Lien/marsian/moonish ?).
I hope you will have the opportunity and the pleasure to look from some
other directions too.
Regards
Karsten

Hallo David,
dein Bericht ist echt witzig und ich hoffe, in n�chster Zeit noch mehr
deiner Erfahrungen lesen zu k�nnen. �hnlich wie dir ergeht es �brigens
den armen Menschen aus Deutschland, die zum Studium in die USA kommen
;-) -- mit dem Unterschied, dass sie normalerweise die Sprache etwas
besser beherrschen. Ich w�nsche dir jedenfalls eine gute Zeit und viel
Spa� in M�nchen! Bald ist ja Oktoberfest...
Viele Gr��e,
Benjamin
PS: In case your phrase book is not good enough, I'm sure you already
discovered http://dict.leo.org/!
