Beautiful Bavaria


Conrad was just here for a week long visit, and we took a couple of fun sightseeing trips together. Unfortunately, it rained most of the time he was here, but the sun shone gloriously for his last couple of days. We went on a hike together on one of the last days of rain, when it was down to just a drizzle. We started at the town of Tutzing on Starnberg, a large lake reachable from Munich by S-bahn or the regional rail. On a clear day, you can see the Alps all along the southern edge of the lake. The picture above shows the view of the lake from a forest and meadow area above Tutzing (called Ilkahoehe).


Here's Conrad on the trail. . .



and here's a nice meadow picture. It was such a memorable hike and day, despite the rain.
