So MUCH in the World...

Impossible and implausible to describe a European vacation. A list may suffice:
Teddy, cycling the Danube and vineyards, St. Pauls, British National Gallery, castles on hilltops, palaces, and residences, noise, Nuremburg rally grounds and trials, Salzburg, Dachau, the autobahn, Kehlstein Haus (Eagle's Nest), beer, beer, beer in Munich, the Alps, Sisi, every incredible church, marzipan pastries, Hundertwasser, Hallstatt, Kunst und die Kalten Krieg, the Tate Modern, Buckingham, the tube, Berchtesgarden, walled cities, Schneeballen...
Or from an art teacher's perspective (with a touch of stretch :-)
(and terrible layout! I give~ but click on pics and enlarge~ incredible stuff~)

Off to the Art World of Austria and Germany!!!!


Absolutely can't wait!
The largest collection of Egon Schiele! and Gustav Klimt, Oskar Kokoschka and Richard Gerstl. I think I'll be in heaven.

Pity my husband.....


Okay, so we'll go to Munich with it's some 100,000 breweries, and the Porsche factory in Stuttgart, and the alps of Innsbruk. He'll survive.
