After visiting the Black Forest, Nina and I went over the border into Switzerland for a day of sight seeing. This is in the countryside where small bits of Switzerland are isolated within Germany.

Me at the falls. Proof that I was there!

They were redoing the cobbled street outside of one of the local cathedrals.

A famous rotating statue.
A pretty church.
Nina and I decided to go to the Black Forest to see the sights and do a little hiking. These are some photos of the adventure.
We decided to hike up a mountain to the top for the view.

The cowbells were magical.

Her radio had been stolen a few weeks before our little trip. She had found a replacement unit although it wasn’t completely installed. At least we had a little music though!
Recent storm damage.
For my father. He loves seeing distribution systems in other countries.

We started driving down this path then decided it was not going to take us where we wanted to go. And with it getting dark, we decided it was not a good idea to try off-roading a Jetta.
Attack of the windmills!
Rather than go to Budapest as I had planned, I ended up partying with my old exchange student sister, Nina, at Das Fest. The place was totally packed with people and music. I’m sad I missed Budapest but I am very glad that I got to go to Das Fest.
