A visit to Bavaria

August 28th, 2008

Isabel and I have just spent a lovely ten days visiting Ilse and Mick in Munich and then spending times staying near the small town of Bayrischzell in the Bavarian Alps. Other than a cancelled flight on the way out (and an unscheduled night in a hotel at Stansted) we had a fabulous time - the photos are here.
