I drag Julie to the Deutsches Museum, which
is described as a cross between a science museum and Disneyland. It
turns out to specialize in scale models. This is Tyco Brahe's
observatory, but we also see a miniature brewery, granary, cheese
factory, brick kiln, old farmhouse, sugar refinery, and dairy farm.

This is an elaborate scale model of an iron
smelter, I think. It is a little hard to tell with all the labels in
German and me without an industrial phrasebook.

We might have missed the Sublah Toilet museum
in India, but we see the toilet exhibit here. The modest plumbing
exhibit is tucked behind the textile exhibit, so to lure visitors in, it
has to resort to paintings of nude women bathing in Roman baths. We feel
cheated (for different reasons) when all the nudity turns out to be in
the ad posters.

It is bitter cold in Munich,
so we barely do any walking around the city. Here is a church we hustle
by with our coats pulled tight around us.
