What a great feeling! Jen and Julia are back in Germany and we're all together once again. I hate to say it but they're both wishing they stayed in CA with the 30 degree drop in temp. CA: Indian Summer. Bann: Icicle toes in the morning. Hard to get used to I'm sure.
We headed out to Luxembourg yesterday to celebrate a wonderful Fall day. The "ville" of Luxembourg has wonderful Fall foliage and perhaps the coolest park in this region. Take a look at the pic on the left. This place is so close but so disctinctly different than Germany. It is a perfect blend of France, Germany, and Belgium. In other words, great chocolate, great cars, and great food. Is it perfect? Well, no. The average age tended to be around dead and there isn't much to do outside of the city but as a day trip, this place is perfect.
.As a retrospective, here is a pic of me and my first hitchhiker: Leonhardt. This guy was
walking--stumbling is a better way to describe it-- literally in the middle of the road on the way to church outside of Berchtesgaden. I couldn't help but stop and help this guy out. Thankfully my friends in the car didn't mind that much and he seemed really appreciative. Super nice guy. Made for a great photo op. Who knows...maybe he is writing in his blog about those nice Americans who stopped and gave him a lift to his church. You never know.Check out some additional pix from the last month. http://s31.photobucket.com/albums/c351/grego108/Oktoberfest%20and%20Berchtesgaden/When Jen and Julia were back home, I hit up Switzerland, Austria, Bavaria, Belgium, and many villages within. It's time to give the Trailblazer and oil change and some much needed downtime.
