Castle Neuschwanstein in the Bavarian Alps

On our second excursion into Bavaria, we decided to combine my wish of seeing the Alps with the kid's wish of seeing the castle that inspired Walt Disney (ok, that was pretty cool for me as well).


It is a 45 minute walk up the mountain to visit the castle, so we took a carriage ride.
The last 1000 meters was by foot, much to Jakob's chagrin.

This is what a 6 year old kid looks like when she looks up and sees the castle up close for the first time.


They didn't allow any pictures on the tour, so this is a sneaky covert shot.
Katharine checks out a real princess.
Lukas strikes a pose in front of the restaurant. I had some sausage and Bavarian beer- a nice way to end the day.
Hugs are nice as well.
