Füssen, our base to visit rhe King’s Castles tomorrow is a small Bavarian town near the Austrian border south of Munich. We took a local train from Munich to Füssen today. We are staying at a lovely recently renovated old hotel, the Hotel Hirsch.
After checking in we went out and explored the town and walked down the river to see the gorge and falls. Füssen has been a stopping point on the trade route from Italy north since Roman Times.
We had a lovely dinner at our hotel.
Lots of travel today. We walked to a city bus stop and caught a bus to the Luxembourg central station.
From there we took a bus out of Luxembourg to Saarbruecken in Germany.
Then we took a local train to Mannheim. And finally a high speed train to Munich.
Tonight we had a fabulous German dinner. I had Wiener schnitzel and Duke essentially had steak and potatoes. It was one of the specials. You can see the German description here.
The meal, the beer and the restaurant complete with waiters in lederhosen were a perfect introduction to Germany and in particular Munich.
