First Impression

THE MUNICH AIRPORT - Terminal 2
Date: 12th May, 2006 Time: 2:04pm

Here I come after reducing 3 kgs. of my luggage at Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport, after getting 146€ in coins and also 32$ for my 20K Rs. (456Rs. of conversion charges at Thomas Cook) after taking off the ground for the first time in life, eating gud breakfast, sleeping 3 hrs. , watching Iqbal and having dreadful lunch [ask makku how was the non-veg that he tried ;)] and a landing that was tooo boring (kuch pataa hi nahi chalaa).

Enter the world of automatic doors, automatic lighting, escalators and a lots of space (as compared to IGI). A sardarji was waiting outside and told us that he can help in getting to the main munich station but we decided to move on and check out our luggage. Going down 3 floors, waited 15 mins. for the luggage. (My suitcase was the first to come out).

A surprise welcomed us when we saw Karn at the airport (Indian friend doing MS in TUM whom I was expecting at Munich main railway station) came to take us.

This photo shows what was our first impression of Munich. The train showed is a model for Fast mass rapid transport system being developed.
Will Go on adding my experiences as time permits. :D
