Therme Erding

Readers of this blog know that we sometimes indulge in mineral springs, spas, Turkish baths, and so on. We did this again at a place called Therme Erding, in Erding, several miles from Munich. It bills itself as Europe's largest "thermal world." We stayed there, rather than in Munich, because Therme Erding offers sort-of -free parking for Wohnmobil clients. In retrospect, I can say it was a mistake. Unless of course your idea of fun is watching a crowd of over-weight and under-clad German suburbanites waddling and prancing around in tepid waters. Way over-priced, too. We spent a bit of time there on a Saturday evening--there was a Groupon for the place that day--and it was awful.
Driving up, we thought at first it was a military installation














A somewhat more flattering view as we left














We figured that any place that used Botticelli's Venus as
its emblem could be OK















It wasn't; even with the glamour shot
