Day 10 - Hiking

Today, we went for a hike in the mountains. This is a very Bavarian activity. It was foggy in Munich when we left town and drove for an hour to the mountains. We hiked 3km. Three kilometers straight up hill. Yes, the road went back and forth and it always went up. Straight up. It was a great hike.

The Germans create great activities for the kids so they don't get too bored. They have a guessing game on the flora and fauna. They also create telescopes out of wood to check out a bird or fir fungus or wood's ear. Educational stations also line the trail.

It was wonderful to move the legs, especially when I'll be on the plane for 10 hours tomorrow.

We climbed above the fog to enjoy the sunshine! Panoramic view of the top.

Torsten made the most amazing dinner when we got home. Pumpkin soup and lasagna.  MMMmmmmmm!!!! It was incredible. (I don't know why my photos won't format on this post.)

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.” 
― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky (Discworld, #32)

Here's to seeing you differently soon! Betsy xoxo
