Stunning – love the way the zigzaging road threads through the picture.

Thanks Erica! Not a technically brilliant pic (it was taken from the car!), but it’s just so beautiful in that part of Bavaria :)

Oh that’s so lovely – it makes me want to run along in the mountains singing, drinking gin in a tin and patting the woodland animals :D

Let me know when you plan on doing that, and I will come and join you :)

I want to burst into song! The hills are alive…

I think I might have been singing it in my head too :)

Stunning, lucky you, not many mountains here!

Thank you! I have gone from a pancake flat land to one with oodles of mountains :)

Very green, and probably a good place to live with all this rain. No flooding and lots of slippery grass to slide around on!

You know, I think you’re right :)

What a gorgeous picture, I’d love to visit Bavaria. My Husband has a German grandmother (who lives in England) and we’re always talking about taking our daughter over there, to all the places he went as a boy. Personally, I just want to see Neuschwanstein!

Reply

bavaria June 10, 2012 at 6:14 pm

Thank you Jayne. You really should, I am sure you would love it! Haven’t been to Neuschwanstein yet, but it’s on the list :)

Oh! This is so, so, so, gorgeous! I love Berchtesgaden – spent many happy times there in summer and in winter (my sister and I learned to ski and that neck of the woods.) Sigh.

Thanks Ms Caroline, so pleased it’s bringing back happy memories for you (hopefully!). Although if they are anything like my skiing lessons, they might be not so happy memories. More like bruised, cold and miserable memories :D xx

Wow, that is absoloutely beautiful! I want to go there! Where is it?

Reply

Thank you! It’s in Berchetesgaten, around an hour and a half from Munich :)
