we turned our head to another direction...

most of the houses r local farmer's home, but i believe there must be other countryside-hotels.

we kept on going...

...until we reached this house. the master of the house is the old lady. she was cleaning her house in the early morning. we said hello to her, and she also said something in German to greet us with her kind smile - but we don't know German

it must be great to live here, we thought.

Trees, flowers & grass...

he he~~~so many kinds of animals~~~

At last we returned to our hotel. After having breakfast, we were ready to leave and began a new day's tour.

Just before i left i found this on the hotel's wall...

Thanks to this place's fairytale-like environment, i think the countryside in Austria is the most impressive & unforgotten place in the trip.

This is the last picture i took in Austria, i tried to capture the mountains & fog. we left Austria in the morning, heading to the next country - Germany!

After a few hours, we arrived in Munich, Germany.

Germany is in the middle of Europe, it's size of 356970 square kilometers, has a population of 82 million. The first thing i notice about this country is the automobile. Germany is the home of automobile, its automobile industry is leading the world! about 1/7 German r directly or indirectly working for its automobile industry. Here u can see a majority of ppl drive Mercedes-Benz or BMW, while Porsche is fewer. the chance u see a Porsche in Germany is equal to the chance u see a Benz or BMW in Chinese Cities! for me this is a good chance to enjoy the nice cars, how can i miss it?!

The building in the picture is the headquarters of BMW!

we visited the Olympic park in the city. this park was built for the 20th Olympic Game in 1972. with the powerful economy, Germany built the most expensive Olympic Palaestra in mankind history. It's obvious feature is the 'curvous(弯曲的) glass covers', these glass r not normal glass, they r special glass, they r very strong, capable of blocking ultraviolet radiation(紫外线), and heat insulation(隔热).

However, that year's Olympic Game was a tragedy. several Israelite atheletes was kidnapped for hostage by some Palestinian terrorists, the government sent out a squad of special force(特种[屏蔽]) to rescue the hostage, but unfortunately the mission was failed. Palestinian terrorists set off a bomb which killed all the hostage and the squad. This event was also becoming a famous 'failed case'(失败案例) in many countries' special force textbooks.

This is a man-made lake inside the Olympic park. many ducks & geese swam here easygoingly.
