Day Trip to Andechs Brewery and Monastery

Must not forget this time...

A wopping 56 people now!!

Anyone else coming? Sign up here.

It's at 62 as of this post...

yeah that was my fault. I've just registered me +5 (couple of TTers in there though!

I'm trying to plan my two-wheeled adventure to this drunken tomfoolery. What time does everyone expect to arrive and begin the festivities? Noon-ish?

Usually we get there just before 12.

Speaking to Winegirl & a couple of others, she wants to take the 10.27 S5 to Herrsching. As there is possibly 60+ of us going everyone should consider trying to meet earlier than 10am. Say 9.45 or so.

Also get in to groups of 5 as soon as possible and get your group tickets.

Partner-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz - 16€

This will set you back a whopping 3,20€

We will wait till 10.20* and then go down to the S-Bahn platform and get the S5 to Herrsching, which is running every 20min.

*For anyone who is late on the day, don’t give up still come along. If there are a few of you, then get the ticket described above, if you are on your own, buy the following ticket and get the S-Bahn as directed above –

Single-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz – 9€

Once there we will be walking up the hill which should take about 40-45 minutes, just simply follow the signs which say ‘Fußweg nach Andechs’

gonna have to pass this time, got too much to do this weekend... but with a group of over 60 I won't be missed.

carm...you might be missed before the first mass. After that no one will miss anyone, and most will be caught on film.

Way number 8,324 that I know I'm going to die Saturday: I overhear DW and benpanter planning something for my birthday, but I all hear is DW saying "don't worry, I'm trained at an EMT"...

Despite that, I can't wait for this, it's going to be wicked pissa.

ok, just got my meld an for this adventure. As I'm coming from up the S5 line already, so I'll be on the train going through Hbf at 10.27 rather than meeting eary at Hbf (unless someone says otherwise). I'm hoping to meet up with the other UF players, so if ya'll end up going even earlier, let me know!!
Also, what section of the train will the group be getting into? Front half, back half? I'll try to sit somewhere near the spilt so as to enable easy movement to the correct train car.

Sort of a newbie. I got talked into going by the curry night crowd on Weds.

@ Weston on the Green: You've been talked into something worth doing.

If I get onto the right bit of the train I'll see y'all half way there. Otherwise somewhere along the trail...

I think I'll go.

jip: Just pop out the door when we get to the Hbf and see us. There's a ton of people coming, so you should recognize us from the giant mass of English speakers. Or look for two giants looking to kill me that day (DW and benpanter).

I do not think I can make it to the trip anymore. Have fun y'all.

We were thinking that it might be a problem to get tables at the place at this time so Quarblotz + I will head off early in an attempt to reserve some. We will catch the 9.27 train and head down then, as it is the same price for 2 or 5 people if anyone else wants to come along at that time we will be at the meeting point at around 9.15.

If you're going that early, try and get on the Terrace. I doubt you can fend people off tables enough for 60 of us, but you should be able to get a couple. Same will happen as last time, we'll just start taking over.

72 signed up!!! Unbelievable...

I agree with 3 Lions. Meet up at 9.45. As the train leaves every 20 minutes then a few could take the 10.07 train to try and split things up a bit and give a few a head start.

I agree and i'll be there at 9:45

not playing frisbee then chewy? Hope your knee's alright

You know you won't regret it! Just go easy on those guinesses..

Good pont bp, ill be with your lot.

Nothing like a little ultimate to get dehydrated before starting drinking! This is going to be insane.

Actually the best seats tomorrow are out on the east terrace, great sun and lovely... but dont forget the sun block

P

BSF: Are you 'Wicked phsyced' yet??

I'll also happy to get there a little earlier, so how many do we have for the 9:45am meet up, and catch the 10:07am S-Bahn ?

me + 3
ETH + 1
Treehugger + 1
Chewy

Any others ?

@ earlybirds - Meet same place then, and go ?

Is anyone up for an 11-ish meetup? Blimeygirl and I have to go to the vets first so cant make it with the earlybirds...

also thinking of coming early to help reserve seats (not to mention the cheeky headstart mass) This might be messy

oooohh, we could do like the germans and get there at the crack of dawn to put our towels on the seats

we'll be heading over a bit later as I have to get food for the evening, also getting 3 girlies through the bathroom takes a while

Not to mention us all being totally frazzled after 6 hours at Therme Erding yesterday, we need to avoid that evil yellow ball in the sky...

To get our shots?! Just kidding...actually we have to take the cat to the vets and then we will set out for the big fest-o-beer. If anyone wants to leave a bit later and get in on a shared ticket let us know

pepper, im no longer going early as im gonan play frisbee so will go with the ultimate group at 10:27. ill be at hauptbanhof, just before 10 thu

Shit im coming up later too, someone save a couple of seats!! On the deck if possible! Cheers!

British Invasion

@ Tom & Blimeygirl I just PM'd you, were are 3 so that's 5 on a ticket, I've sent my phone number so just call when you're planning to leave

Bloody hell! Just noticed we're now 78 people!!! Christ on a bike.
Will someone save 5 seats for us? BlimeyGirl is going to need one after walking with her injured ankle!
*reconsiders going to monastery with my language*

you kids can catch the 10:07 if you like, but you'll find me already with Maß in hand. i'm going to get up early enough to get the even earlier one at 9:47. i'll be at the meeting point until just before then. it can only help to have some bodies there earlier -- with SEVENTY of us! -- and i have to work that night at the arc so i need an early start.

shit, I live right next to it practically, but will be working all day...I'm sure you'll be gone by the time I get back. need more things on sundays, lol

I was thinking of getting the 9:31am S-7 from Solln so I will be there a little bit after 9:45 is thats OK?.

fine and dandy

Ooo..I am coming too...a bit later. Rugby first!

Does anybody know if you can get a nice Weisswurst breakfast at Andechs?

Don't know about sausages but does anyone know about shoes? It is a 45 minute walk but is it more like a flip-floppy type uphill stroll or more like a rugged walking shoe type hike??
Cheers, let me know

its a fairly smooth path, flip flops will be fine, unless you are german in which case you will need hiking boots, poles, knickerbockers and a little red bandanna to tie around your neck.

Cheers - will be leaving all those accessories at home where they belong, except maybe a bandanna cos I don't want to be a redneck. Don't forget sun tan lotion everyone!

96 people !!! No way we can reserve tables for that many.

will try to get enough for about 60, with latecomers and no shows i expect this should be enough for a while.

We have made up some reserved signs to put on the tables, touch wood that will keep other people off them for a while

Well you can count one out. It was pretty late by the time I went to bed last night and there was no way I could have made it this morning. Hope you guys have lot of fun.

can someone tell me plz what is andechs? and if we can join

Andechs is a monastary/brewery. It is a nice place, but damn full of tourists and locals. You cannot really join in for today's trip as it is a bit late. I am sure there will be other trips and you would be more than welcome to go along and experience whatever it is that makes TTers want to go in the first place.

Im drunk and sunburnt, going to have a cold bath and a nice big sleep. What a great day.

Actually wasn't that crowded today...in fact unbelievably uncrowded Lovely day...albeit a bit hot They need more umbrellas at that place for those who do not want to bake in the sun. We should do it again before summer is over! Hope everyone had a great time.
