The only evidence of medicinal advantages in Bad Reichenhall seemed to be a big cluster of hospitals around a very modern indoor swimming pool complex. Next time I need to bring a guide book. I had expected to be able to use my IPad so that I could look up things to see and do as we traveled along, but Europe isn't as high tech and wired as the America-haters claim it is.
