After a so so (snow snow :)) night of sleeping due to jet lag, we ventured out to see where Sascha grew up today. We saw his Elementary School, his old Soccer field, the house he grew up in and even the hospital he was born in. Yes it is still around. LOL :) Everything is so beautiful. The ground is covered with snow and Niki of course loved it! As soon as we walked outside his eyes just lit up. We stopped for a little bit and let him run around for the first time, you can see for yourself from the picture below how he liked it. Of course he wasnt the happiest when we put him back in the car to go. However as soon as we got into the car with pretzel in hand he fell asleep for a few hours. After our nap, yes I said OUR nap, we walked to the city center to look around and get some more fresh cold air. Next week is the beginning of the Christmas Market so all the Christmas trees and decorations are coming out. Covered with Snow it looks like a postcard. Tomorrow we are going up to Füssen, home of the famed 'Neuschwanstein' (:Noy-shvan-shtayn- c'mon, ain't THAT hard to pronounce!!) castle, which was the inspiration for Disney's castle in their themeparks - and the brainchild of another crazy German, King Ludwig II. This concludes our educational part of this blog, courtesy of Prof. Dr. FOS (full of sh$&) Sascha.
Stay tuned for more mindblowing details, and "Servus" (Bye-bye, as us mountain folks like to say)
Yodle-deyee-hoo
Niki, the Bean, Ryan, Sascha
