Father's Day in Germany

The Fuzz ran into this on Spiegel.

Father's Day in Germany

"Father's Day in Germany, coinciding as it does with a national holiday, has long been a day for men to get together and get drunk. Excursions into the countryside are common, with beer being the beverage of choice, though some carry walking sticks with baskets full of schnapps attached at the top." 

There's even Pix!

Irresistible

This was one of those irresistible sites in Munich.

Tiny Transport

Whilst The Fuzz and his Sweetie were out and about in Garmisch, they saw this little thing.

Not exactly a SUV.
But I'll bet it's cheap on gas!

Munich

The Fuzz apologizes for all these scattered posts.
On our trip to Munich, we found ourselves in this big plaza in front of the City Hall (or what ever they call it).
It was pretty elaborate.
This monument was there in the square.

The Fuzz and His Sweetie took a lot of pix on this trip. They'll probably be turning up here at Kinda Fuzzy for a while. But let's face it, Folks like us don't get to see this stuff that often living here in the woods.

Here's a look at some of the details.

Walkin' Around

Here's a few pix of a stone bridge The Fuzz and his Sweetie came upon whilst walking near Bedesbach, where we were staying.Here is a view looking up the street from on the bridge.And lastly, a look from the other direction.

To The City 2

From that Big Bonhof, we had to catch the train that goes down in tunnels under the city.

It was a quick ride.

To The City 1

Now it was time for our Big City Adventure.
So we caught the train to Munich.

This was a new experience for The Fuzz and His Sweetie. We don't ride the train much back at home.
Mostly, because there ain't none.This is a look at the Big Bonhof in Munich.

Snails Do It Too

As we were hiking around the lake, we came upon this happy couple.

So now we know how snails do it.
Very slowly.

More To See

Here's a bit more of the scenery around here.

These are a couple from a walk around a lake.

Up There

When we got to our room, we found an incredible view of the mountains.

We also saw this guy up there. But, really, maybe it wasn't a guy. I mean, who could tell at this distance? I'm sure it is exciting up there. But The Fuzz thinks that he wold prefer it down here for now.

Garmisch

Not all of Germany is hills and mountains. Here's a look at a village we passed on our way to Garmisch.

But at Garmisch there are a few more hills.The Fuzz and His Sweetie spent most of the day doing the Tourist Thing in town.

They had a pretty good time. His Sweetie checked out some of the chocolate shops. I think they both had a taste, if the truth be known. At one point, it did rain a bit. They took shelter at a table outside a restaurant and drank a bit of wine while they waited for it to stop.
