Many of the vendors at the Viktualienmarkt in Munich sell food and of those, some of them sell prepared food and some sell beer. There is a large beer garden in the market. Some folks were standing around this statue / fountain, whose base became a bar counter.

In the Viktualienmarkt there are many fountains with statues on top. Many of the statues had been decorated with flowers (possibly because it was the day before Easter, but I'm just speculating). This statue was "ida Schumacher"

A LOT of eggs were on sale for Easter. You could find whole, empty osterich shells, some decorated. Also, empty egg shells were sold with elaborate decorations. People hung them from trees and outdoor things as easter decorations.
These colored eggs are all hard boiled. I ate more hardboiled eggs in Munich than I'd eaten in the last 5 years.
These eggs were for sale at the Viktualienmarkt in Munich

"Nein! Tschernobyl is nich vergessen!"
"No! Chernobyl is not forgotten!"
This sign at the Viktualienmarkt in Munich advertised some talks to be given against nucler power and nucler proliferation and the lingering effects of the Chernobyl distater.
Several of the speakers at the Peace rally I attended earlier also spoke against all nuclear programs, whether civil or military.
