The Hotel Edelweiss, Menzinger Street 103, Munich, West Germany.
Elvis and his group left the Tschechowa household and moved to the Hotel Edelweiss supposedly due to bad behaviour on Lamar and Red's part. Elvis and Vera went to the movies while Elvis' chauffeur Joseph Wehrheim went out to buy him some new shirts.
The Moulin Rouge Nightclub, Munich, West Germany.
Later in the evening Vera, Elvis, Lamar and Red (wearing Elvis' jacket) went to the Moulin Rouge Strip Club in Munich. Vera though because she was eighteen had to leave after an hour. The boys returned later and Elvis, Red and Lamar stayed until 4:00 am.
