Most famous for the once a decade Passion Play, Oberammergau is a quaint little town with beautifully painted homes in the Alps of Bavaria.

Innsbruck

Innsbruck is a great city with the impressive Alps, perfect for skiing.

Look at the beautiful view over the city with the imposing Alps.

Such a pretty city

The Golden Roof is a famous landmark in Innsbruck. It was commissioned for a royal wedding.

Neuschwanstein 1991

May 1991

This gorgeous castle is the one that inspired Walt Disney Worlds Cinderella Castle. He was later known as “Mad” King Ludwig but many question whether or not he was mentally ill or not. He plunged his kingdom into massive debt with his megalomaniac construction projects that still dot the Bavarian countryside today. Sadly he was deposed and found dead in a lake, many question whether or not he was killed or suicide. He only lived in his castle for a short period of time and it still is not finished.

Munich 1991

May 1991

This was my first time in Munich and I fell in love.

The famous Glockenspiel in the Marienplatz

The infamous Hofbrauhaus for a fun evening in the beer hall!

Heidelberg

May 1991

We took a leisurely cruise down the Rhine to Heidelberg. It was beautiful having ein viertel Wein as you pass the green river banks dotted with crumbling castles at the high points.

The castle in Heidelberg

Going out at night, Heidelberg is a University town with a great nightlife scene.

Cologne

May 1991

Gray, chilly and gothic were my first impressions of Cologne. The dramatic cathedral imposes itself over the city almost like a mountain.

Last year East and West Germany unified and it was an exciting time to be there.

Brussels

May 1991

I loved Brussels but didn’t get to spend enough time here. I need more cafes with Stella Artois, moules and frites!

The Grand Place is gorgeous and so much going on in the square.

Manneken Pis is the famous statue, the Pisser, that everyone has to take a picture with!

Volendam

May 1991

We took a day trip from Amsterdam to this cute town! I loved it, so much charm and what you picture when you think of Holland.

Gabby and I were excited to see windmills, cows and wooden shoes!

We had the best apple pancakes, huge and thick. We also ate herring right off the docks, take a bite right up to the head!
