Dachau concentration camp was the first of the Nazi concentration camps opened in 1933, intended to hold political prisoners. It is not far from Munich, Bavaria, southern Germany.
I didn’t take many pictures, it was more about the experience and the feeling you get while there. You definitely feel the heaviness of the suffering and death. You come away different, it’s not a site you enjoy but one you must visit.

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.

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

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

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.

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.
