Germany- Oberammergau

The second to last day I was there, we headed off to Oberammergau. It was the home of Schloss Linderhof and a beautiful town.


Kofel in the background. I'm a lousy photographer.


The town is famous for its wall murals.

The ceiling of Linderhof that I got before we were told not to take pictures.


Statue of King Ludwig II



Austria- Kufstein

I landed at 8:30 in the morning. This was my second time to Germany, so why not go to Austria? We hopped on a train and took the hour and a half train to Kufstein.




Festung Kufstein







The fortress. This is where we spent the majority of our time.

Germany- Munich

In a unexpected twist, I ended up going to Germany last minute. No seriously, I booked the tickets on a Sunday, and on Friday I was on an airplane. Have some pictures:


Apfeltaschen, basically apple turnover. I ate about a dozen of them.
