And the Adventure Continues

Last time I wrote we headed for Marksburg Castle. It lies on the Rhine river, north of Wiesbaden. Cherie loved it.

On the way back we drove to the top of the Lorelei, walked around on the cliff, tried to keep from falling, and enjoyed the view.

Beautiful drives around the Taunus and along the ancient river, which flowed powerfully.

Can you tell that I am in German language mode?

I have reverted to German for these weeks, and it makes my English kömisch. (That's weird)

We are now in Bavaria, and we experienced the Marienplatz, the cathedrals, and the ambiance.

Yesterday we drove south to Linderhof, a gorgeous small palace of King Ludwig the second. We drove on to Austria through the Alps, back through a tunnel to Füßen, and off to see the castles Neuschwannstein and Hohenschwangau.

We enjoyed the majestic views with clear skies.

After this we drove to the Wieskirche, took pictures of the beautiful organ and interior which you will see in any Art history textbook.

What beauty!

After coffee and Kuchen (cake) there by the church we drove back to Munich, and had a fantastic Bavarian meal at the home of our friends.

Today...
