Germany

On day five we traveled to Zugspitze, Germany's highest point, at 9,700 feet. From there we traveled to Bavaria and the beautiful village of Füssen where we spent a lazy afternoon walking along the Lech River. The next day was filled with castles and kings. The Museum of the Bavarian Kings provided a history of the Wittelsbach dynasty. Visiting King Ludwig's Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau Castles was like being in a fairy tale (without the knights in shining armor).
