I started off today by going to the mall. I met up with a Pokémon Go friend there for a lucky trade, then did a little shopping. When packing for this trip, I checked the weather forecast, and because Munich was going to be cool and rainy, I packed leggings that go with my ankle boots, and socks that also work with the boots. However, I did not try them on together, so when I put on my dress this morning I discovered that the tops of the socks and the bottoms of the leggings didn't meet. My ankles were cold! I also deliberately did not pack an umbrella, because my travel raincoat is enough for most days (that is, when I remember to put it in my bag). The rain was steady today, so in addition to a longer pair of socks, I also picked up a cheap umbrella.
I poked my head into a drugstore to buy some sunscreen and cough drops. At home, I like the sugar-free Ricola cough drops, but I've only been able to find two flavors, and I didn't like one of them. There were many more choices here, and they came in cute little boxes so that I don't have to deal with noisy wrappers during performances.
I had lunch with with Beth & Jimmy, and my sister Emily. We had tasty German food, but did not remember to take any photos of our schnitzels, potato salad, Kasespätzel, and pancake with apple sauce. Or of each other — I guess we were hungry!

For dinner, I met my high school classmate Kristy and her husband, and had more tasty German food. I opted for a salad with chicken (schnitzel-style), and a sour-cherry spritzer.
And now for the main event, the reason we're all in Munich. Today Beth graduated from Iwanson International, after three years of hard work.
