We got up and packed up and everyone swept the house to make sure we didn’t leave anything. We packed the remaining meat and cheeses and bread for the car in case we got hungry, as well as the leftover chips and other snacks. The car was packed and we got the road for Munich.… Continue reading Europe – Day 14 – Munich

We started the day with just coffee and juice and hit the road early. We made sandwiches the night before, using all the bread and lunch meat that we have an eaten, and ate the sandwiches in the car. We had an hour and 15 minute drive to whole stat, which is a small town,… Continue reading Europe – Day 13 – Hallstatt

Today was a typical breakfast. We had muesli with milk or yogurt, coffee tea and orange juice. We also made toast and enjoy that with a mix of butter and jam or soft cheese and meat. Since we are going to be on the road today and we had purchased a bunch of food we… Continue reading Europe – Day 11 – Ice Caverns and salt processing

After a quick breakfast we headed into Salzburg. It was less than a 10 minute drive to find the parking lot near Mozartplatz. We went to the tourist information bureau and purchased a Salzburg pass for the day. That gave us the ability to go to all the museums in the city for free, as… Continue reading Europe – Day 12 – Salzburg

Took it easy around the house this morning. We got in around 10 last night and got to bed late so we slept in a little bit this morning. Ran a load of laundry and planned the day. We ate an early lunch at a local pub – it was delicious! Schnitzel with pomes frites,… Continue reading Europe – Day 10 – Pub lunch and salt mine tour

Big travel day today. We got up early, packed up and hit the road. Our first stop was at the Migros grocery store. It was in a shopping mall not far from our Airbnb, and it was huge. The first challenge was fine in the parking lot, as there was a lot of construction in… Continue reading Europe – Day 9 – Zurich to Salzberg

The highlight of breakfast this morning was a quiche that Ryan purchased. Again, unfortunately, none of us could read the packaging in German and it turned out to be cheese only. But it was still good. We packed up and headed out to Rhein Fall, a place that Patty recommended we see. We drove about… Continue reading Europe – Day 8 – Rhein Fall and Stein am Rhein

Our first night in the new place went pretty well. After being out in the middle of nowhere, we had to contend with car noises and other sounds of civilization, but it wasn’t too bad. We got up and enjoyed a breakfast of our better cereal along with a little bit of the muesli. We… Continue reading Europe – Day 7 – Appenzell & St. Gallen

It was another beautiful morning at the farm. The cows were really rambunctious this morning and made a lot of noise. We saw them being hustled out of their pens and lead to a pasture that was not outside our window. We packed up the car and we’re on the road in a little bit… Continue reading Europe – Day 6 – Zurich

Got another early start on the day. Unfortunately the musically that we just bought is less cereal than the last one but it still good. How was your usual breakfast of cereal toast or croissants, and juice or coffee went quickly and we are on the road. Today was the first clear morning and the… Continue reading Europe – Day 5 – Mt. Titlis
