...didn't see Frankenstein

A few weeks ago I met a girl from Regensburg who's taking part in a play in Ingolstadt. Every Saturday she and her friend head over there for a few hours rehearsal. Ingolstadt had been recommended to me (BMD) and this was a good excuse to pop over. Bavaria has one-day Bayern tickets for 28€ that allow unlimited travel for up to five people, and so it was free for me (the theatre pays for the ticket).

I was too early for the Christmas market that takes place from next week on but the regular market, as shown, was hopping. Nearby were the beer stands. Ingolstadt has its own brew and they make an okay Weiß and Dunkel Weiß biers. As far as I can tell, the routine is to drive to the market with your husband, park the car, leave him near the beer stands, and go shopping.

The old town is all I wanted to see and it was small enough to walk through. Unfortunately the castle is only accessible via the Armory museum which is closed on Saturdays (?). But I managed to get some pictures around town and it was well worth a few hours visit.
