Halloween revellers. Or as we say in Bavaria, Protestants.

Autumn leaves, autumn light. Growing up in #Adelaide, the changes of season were subtle. Few deciduous trees meant there was no real “fall”; the vintage marked the end of summer. I enjoy the contrast here in #Bavaria, with its distinct autumn.

Let’s be clear. We have ABSOLUTELY NO MORE ROOM for flea market finds, but that doesn’t stop us from visiting the #AuerDult three times a year. Always intriguing—and yes, we did buy some completely unnecessary junk because we can’t help ourselves. #Munich #Munchen #dailywalk

For Adelaide friends. Must confess, punk left me cold the first time ‘round, but I’ve started to dig it. Clearly, others feel the same. After almost 50 yrs, my pals from Black Chrome are back. Dark, cynical, nihilistic, and brilliant. BYO alcohol and Zoloft. #punk #punkrock #Adelaide

2. Marchers must dress authentically to the first Oktoberfest in 1810. (Except for the eyeglasses, smartphones, rubber-soles shoes, and musical instruments labelled “Yamaha”, apparently). Note the circus performers and taxidermy…./3 #Munich #München #Bayern #Bavaria #morningwalk #dailywalk

When you live in a place where English is not the first language, you can never tell if this sort of thing is a mistake, or actually quite a decent pun. #Munich #München #Denglisch #dailywalk

I am not a Luddite. I download every app, use AI productively, and know how to game an algorithm. But we just got a new ultra-programmable microwave that demands I tell it how much a bowl of broccoli weighs. It makes me long for a knob.

I use an AI note-taker (read.ai) and it's brilliant. Summaries, transcripts, recordings, action points...but dubious "coaching" advice. Apparently, in my last meeting, I scored a gentlemanly C on Charisma, and got warned for 4 offensive, non-inclusive terms: "virgin", "stupid" x 2, and "crappy" 🤷

White-knuckled it through to 5.15 pm, but could hold out no longer. Worth the wait. A 2010 New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, drinking like butterscotch candy. Cheers, and happy Independence Day, to all who celebrate unironically.

Today’s superfluous #denglisch: Funsportstation. To be fair, though, “sport” is a legit Dudened-up German word. #Munich #München #Germany #Austria #morningwalk

Pleased to report my neighbour’s sauna can travel no faster than 100 km/h. It would ruin the wellness vibe. #Altbogenhausen #Munich #München #dailywalk

The Nationaltheater in Munich faces due west. On a good day, the afternoon sun catches the shimmering gold leaf on the gable perfectly, to contrast with the clouds behind it. Also, King Max Joseph seems to have a pigeon in his head 24/7. Do they take it in shifts? #Munich #München #dailywalk

A real Australian summer came Munich yesterday. Unlike the Sth Oz of my youth, German summers are the wet season.The humidity can dull the blue of the sky, but not y’day. The bright sun literally shed new light on the formal, geometric architecture of the Residenz #Munich #München #dailywalk

Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan clash in the European Champions League final in Munich today. A stroll through the city centre suggests we’ve combined football with Fashion Week.
