One euro bought my classmates and I a trip up Belltower's church balcony. Three hundred and eighty seven steps allowed us to see all of Munich. We were able to see the Alp Mountain range, Olympic Village and an English Garden. The stairs were rough getting up, but the reward was worth it. I'm in love with the natural beauty of Munich. There's so much color and style.
Next stop was a Catholic Church. The significance of this particular church comes from a folklore. It was said that since the church was built so quickly that the devil had something to do with it. Within ten feet of walking into the church, you're greeted with the "devil's footprint." It stands out like a sore thumb. Some of us proceeded to stick our foot in the print, but my superstition wouldn't let me.
The architecture of the church is immaculate. There wasn't a stone out of place. A few of our classmates even stayed behind for the evening Mass service. Day three of Munchen was successful.

of South Carolina, School of Journalism and Mass Communications students and two professors are spending two weeks in Munich and Berlin Germany, as part of a May class. The object is to learn about convergence journalism and develop multimedia stories and communication skills that extend beyond the classroom. During this three-week class students will interview, write, photograph and video Germans and discover how different media's role is in this country.
