Today? Less words, more pictures.
We started early again and drove to Landsberg Am Lech, a lovely walled city with a beautiful church the 'Heilig Kreuz' (pictured below).
We wandered around the city a fair bit, was accosted by an elderly gent who wanted to show me things to photograph in Landsberg (sweet, but we were on a pretty tight schedule) and then headed off for Neuschwanstein, with a stop enroute for a famous five style picnic (yes, cold turkey sandwiches, but no lashings of ginger beer) behind a very picturesque barn in an field.
Moving on, we visited the castles (my second time here) and despite Neuschwanstein looking like it was wrapped in bubble wrap from the road side, all was well on the walk up and the tour inside which was excellent. Hohenschwangau (pictured up top) we just visited from outside as I had been in on my first trip to the area.
On then to the Wies Kirche near Steingaden a UNESCO heritage site – (pictured) I actually thought this was more beautiful from outside than in but I was distracted by the glorious sunset.
More admiring of the sunset on the way home, and tomorrow? Austria and maybe onto Italy a little early – happy days.
