Bavarian Alps

Garmisch

Over Labor Day, went to the Bavarian Alps with our good friends the Johnsons and the Flores. Had a great time. Garmisch was beautiful. We (even Cindy) went walking along the gorge.

ITALY

A couple of weeks later we flew to Pisa, Italy on Ryanair Airlines which has bargain fares. Our roundtrip airfare was 11 euro each. We rented a car and drove the Italian coastal cities of Cinqueterra. As you can see it was beautiful.

Summer in Europe

Fall has arrived in Baumholder. We completed our first summer in Europe. We managed to visit 7 countries in 6 months. After Brian's visit in June, we went to France for the Tour de France. Even got a glimpse of Lance.

Ireland

Austria

Our children have decided to follow suit and have departed to their own adventures. Brian decided that he wanted to pursue his dream to live in Alaska so has taken a job as a psychiatric tech at a residential treatment center in Bethel, Alaska where a friend of Cindy lives. Before he left for Alaska, he came to Germany to see us. As this was his first time to see Alaska we gave him a whirtlwind tour of Europe doing 5 countries in 10 days.
