Evening to you all. I'll continue the story of Monday... Dad and the girls and I met 2 girls from Texas in Greece on a mission trip, which was really neat. It's always neat to hear other people from North America so far from home:) Tuesday we originally intended to head to Delphi, but our GPS was confused and told us it would take about 4.5 hours. Instead we headed south to Naphtaali to see some ruins. We saw a fortress built about a thousand years ago to guard the port in Naphtali, which was really neat as it was largely intact and we could climb around on it. We also went to a castle on a small island just offshore, also built around 1000 AD. Today we went into Corinth, and visited the ruins of ... read more

This afternoon we took a bus into Interlaken and went to the Yodelfest there. It was... amusing to see all of the traditional garb and the huge pipes, along with the many people bursting into song at whatever time they deemed fit. We planned to go on a picnic today, but the clouds are low and its raining so we'll try again tomorrow. Fare thee well.... read more

Hello, all. We've had two days chock full of history and beauty. Yesterday we went first to Nuremburg, the city dubbed by Hitler to be "The most German of all German cities." We visited the castle there and had a lovely look around the city. We then went to the coliseum-like building where Hitler held rallies for his Nazi supporters. It was huge! Its name started with Reich and ended with a whole lot of letters and museum. We noticed it was getting a little worn down, which we appreciated. Best not to keep a place like that in its glory. We also took a tour through the museum, and were educated on WWII a little bit. Then it was on to Munich. We didn't do much there, just had pizza and looked at the unbelievable ... read more

Hello, all. Here's an update for you: Yesterday we wandered through the itty Dutch town of Barneveld, admiring the brick streets and small buildings. And bikes! Everywhere, bikes. Today we were driven to Germany (The fourth country I have ever been in...) To fetch our... small motorhome. We drove more; along the Autobahn. Flat fields morphed into lush green, treed hills. Large ones. We saw plenty of small villages and one castle's ruins. Germany so far has a very mystical feel. Our campground here is quite busy. It happens to be a long weekend in Germany, and the campgrounds here don't have campsites; or at least this one doesn't. It's a plot of land on a first come first serve basis. Heh heh... we barely managed to find a little postage stamp spot, but we're here. ... read more
