Sometimes Munich sucks and you hate it

I had my first bad experience in Munich. My entire time there the temperature was around 90 and only dropped to about 85 at night. And Europeans are not into air conditioning. Or ice. Or even very cold water. So my whole time there I was constantly sweating. 
In desperation for something cold I tried to get an ice cream from McDonalds.
I was told the machine was not working because it was too hot.
The time finally came to leave and I have to admit I was pretty happy about it. I arrived at the train station and my train was cancelled. I think. I really don't understand German but 5 minutes after the train was supposed to arrive everyone left the platform and all information about that train was just gone. So I had to wait an hour for the next train. Which arrived 20 minutes late. In desperation to cool down I bought an ice cream cone. I have never enjoyed an ice cream cone less. It was not cool enough for the heat and too sweet. I eventfully convicted the guy at Starbucks to give me some ice, which was the best part of my time in Munich 

The train for Salzburg finally arrived, I got on, happy to be done with Munich. And then some announcement was made and lots of people grumbled and got off the train. A nice German lady informed me that a bomb had been found near Salzburg, and we were still going to go there but for some reason this had delayed our driver and we were going to leave but at an unknown time. An hour later, two and a half hours after I initially wanted to leave, I was finally on my way out of Munich
