Germany Oct 2008

What cute boys...

Wagon ride with Gran and Grandad on the way down from seeing...

Neuschwannstein Castle (the Cinderella castle)

This was taken outside of the Weiskirche (White Church) in Bavaria.  The church was beautiful but the kids were more so...

On a hike around the Eibsee, a small lake at the base of the Zugspitze, the tallest mountain in Germany

More hiking photos but this time with the lake in the photo

Stewart considering the joys of throwing rocks into the lake.

Riding the gondola up the mountainside for short hour long hike back down to the... 

Alpine slide where Emma and Ander had a blast going as fast as we could go.  Emma seem's ready for the bobsled

Even with a missing tooth Emma is a beautiful girl

Waiting for the train to take us to Salzburg for yet another castle.

Monument at the base of the castle, nice outdoor shopping off to the right

The boys had quite a fun sword fight with this cute little old lady they met in the courtyard.

Here they've finally beat her down into submission.  I mean really two boys armed with balloon swords, she didn't really stand a chance (the fact that she was only like five feet tall didn't help her either).

Two beautiful girls standing in front of the Glockenspiel in Marien Platz (Munich town square)

Stewart apparantly loves the giant wild boar statue.  I mean really who doesn't like bacon...?
