Germany!

On Thursday July 5 we traveled from Venice to Munich! I ate all three meals in a different country! Breakfast was in Venice, lunch was in Austria amongst the alps and dinner was at Hofbrauhaus in Munich!

When we got to Munich we dropped our stuff at the hotel and headed to explore. We saw parts of the main area of Munich before heading to dinner. Here are some shots from dinner at the Hofbrauhaus.

I got spaetzle noodles and they were delicious! It was the German take on Mac and geese!

We also got giant pretzels!

The next day we headed to a castle in the Rhine valley in northern Germany! The views on the way there were again beautiful! When we got to the small town we stayed in we got a demonstration at the coo coo clock shop and the beer stein store. These are things that Germany are famous for.

Next was a river cruise on the seine river. 

 It was a relaxing way to see all the castles, churches and towns along the river!  After the cruise we headed to a castle where we stayed for the night. Our room was on the third floor up a steep set of spiral stairs! 

The view from the castle was beautiful! We could see down the river and the towns below.

We had a chill night playing cards on the open patio and sharing stories with each other. This morning I got up extra early to watch the sunrise. It was kind of behind a mountain but the sky was beautiful!

Today I am headed to Amsterdam! This is our last stop of the tour. I am excited for Amsterdam but also excited to be home and see all my family and friends soon!!
