Neuschwanstein


Neuschwanstein... the fairytale castle of dreams... an exquisite mirage in the Bavarian Alps...

we were one of the first in the castle in order to escape the crowds... it was worth it to have the castle to ourselves on Marie's Bridge...

we walked around the Alpsee after visiting both castles, P had the wonderful idea of taking a rowboat out on the lake. It was one of the loveliest things we did, floating on the lake with views of both castles and the alps. The sun shining gently down and the tourist crowds far away...

we took the cablecar up the alps in the afternoon and hiked up near the top...our first hike up the snowy and craggy mountains...breathtaking views... P was very impressed by the hang-gliders :p

one of our best days... the castles... the lake... the Bavarian Alps...
