Hello to all from Bavaria! We enjoyed a wonderful vacation from out vacation in Dubrovnik and rested our weary feet just in time to gear up for more sightseeing...So off to Venice we went, for two wonderful days and nights...no celebs to be seen unfortunately, we just missed the film fest. But we did enjoy numerous cheap pizzas, live music, long strolls, and romantic water bus rides...no gondolas for us....verrrry pricey.
We caught a night train to Munich and slept soundly, which is a good thing because we started our sightseeing right away with a walking tour of the old city..man will I be telling you all about that when I have more time...quite the historical epicenter for WWII and the nazi movement. After the tour we embibed some delicious bavarian beer with our guide at his local watering hole. Oh yes, people wear lederhosen here..seriously. Yesterday we took some time out to go to fantasy land in the form of an extravagant castle build by mad king ludwig, as the inspiration for the disney castle, this place did not disappoint. Ready to take on some heavier history, we took a guided tour of the Dachau concentration camp. I can go on for hours about that experience and our tour, but somehow a blog doesnt seem like the appropriate place to do it. I can just say that it is an experience not to be missed nor taken lightly.
Tonight, we are off on another train to Prague, where we will regale you with more detailed stories and photos...As always we hope all is well at home and can not believe that we will be back there with you all in two weeks....
