Boat Pilatus took us to Mt. Pilatus...how ironic!

Another view of Luzern on the water

The building on the right is one of Luzern's famous hotels. On the left was our hotel...great location...crappy hours.

Back in Germany! World Cup fever's everywhere

Triberg, is home to the two largest cuckoo clocks in the world! Unfortunately, we couldn't find them.

Could anyone please tell me what time it is?

I'm cuckoo for cuckoo clocks.

Lunch anyone?

When making your own food, you can eat where ever you like! Unless the police tell you to leave.

Another view of the Germany's highest waterfall

Our little friend napping during the game...where's the team spirit?

Heather is usually a 100% Brazilian fan, but today it was all Deutschland!

Go Deutschland! Go tasty beer!

Even the Germany Police know how to have fun!

Crazy fans take one! Can you find Heather?

Crazy fans take two! Can you find Heather?

Crazy fans take three! Can you find Heather?

Germany's second highest waterfall...hehe

Doorway into the Strasbourg Cathedral

The Strasbourg astronomical clock

The Strasbourg Cathedral...under restoration.

From 1625 to 1847 it was the tallest church in the world...currently the 4th tallest.

I know I'm a sexy-b, but check out the reflection in the glasses...Heather is so creative!

With the Tour in town, there were all free things everywhere! Cotton Candy, drinks, cheese and crakers, it had it all!

It's all good!
Your Freiburg "friend" has all the makings of a good hasher... He's just saving his energy for the next beer stop. ;-) Gorgeous scenery! And that Swiss chocolate WAS good - especially the coconut and esspresso filled ones. It's all good!

Travelling from Triberg to Strasbourg
Hi, I've been searching the internet trying to find a way to get from Strasbourg to Triberg by train or bus but haven't found any solutions. I stumbled upon your blog, however, and noticed that you travelled from Triberg to Strasbourg. Can you tell me what transportation you used to do so? Thanks so much for you help!!

Strasbourg
The cathedral in Strasbourg is Notre Dame (de Strasbourg); they say it's one of the best examples of Gothic architecture. We were certainly impressed.
