Day 3


It snowed all day today! For lunch we visited a typical German restaurant. As expected, after that 2 hour bus drive we were famished. It had a typical German menu consisting of sandwiches, spaghetti, hotdogs, and schnitzel. After a yummy meal, we had to hike thirty minutes while it was snowing to the Neuschwanstein Castle. The Neuschwanstein was the castle Walt Disney based both Disney Land and Disney World off of. Sadly, only one third of the rooms had been completed. However, we saw the king’s quarters and were in awe of the intricate detail in the wood. We were told that the entire room took a group of wood carvers 4 years to complete. To our amusement, it was our tour guides first English tour, and he misspoke many English words. After the tour, we took another hour bus ride to arrive in a town where we got an hour free time to explore the town. After another one hour bus ride, we finally got to the hotel! It is very comfortable and for dinner we had chicken and macaroni and cheese pasta. We all got to use showers that were actually functional, and a good time was had by all.

  1. You're reminding me of some of the sights I saw when I visited Deutchland many moons ago. Thanks for keeping us updated
