Our friends Jon and Cherolyn came for a visit. After their evening arrival we left first thing the next morning for Bavaria. It was a long rainy drive but worth it once we arrived. We returned to the Hotel Das Graseck in Garmish-Partenkirchen because we enjoyed it so much last year.

Every morning we checked out our view. We were never disappointed. We spent some time walking around Lake Eibsee. |
Knowing we wouldn’t have clear views we still took a cog train up to the highest mountain in Germany.
It was snowing! |
Jon, Cherolyn and I walked the Partnach Gorge. A must see with its steep rock walls and fast flowing water.
A tram took us to the top of Wank Mountain where we did some hiking, admired the views and had a typical German lunch.
Linderhof Palace was a treat. The grounds were beautiful and the palace itself has a magnificent interior. It was a nice place to visit without being overly large. It was built by King Ludwig II.

Leaving Bulgaria our drive back to Rabelo and Strasbourg was uneventful, meaning no rain. We then spent a day exploring Strasbourg.
The storks take good care of their babies. |
In Kaysersberg we had another great wine tasting with Philippe Blanck at Domaine Paul Blanck. |
