Notes
Take S-8 line from airport to Rosenheimer Platz. Purchase a 3 day Partner Tageskarte for the whole gang for 21 Euro. Stamp the ticket before use. I think it goes into a Blue Machine. Stay on the S-8 line to Rosenheimer Platz.

From the station, take a short taxi or walk toward river for about 1/2 mile (which would be a long way with kids and a ton of luggage).
