From Louise: In Lake Titisee . Awesome . View of lake. Hotels have been the best ever.Group is quite good. Met some great people we hang with mostly. One lady keeps us laughing. One young girl from California a single missed plane so missed first day. Late for departures so got tuned in but she still doesn’t get why she has to be on time.
The markets are beautiful but I made up my mind not to buy more Xmas decorations , have enough. Some have to buy another suitcase. Did not go on horse & carriage ride in Innsbruck, . Not as cold as thought so we have these great big fleece jackets to haul around. The Aussies are cold though.
Will walk about titisee today. Early start to Strasbourg & colmar tomorrow with a late night. Saturday to Zurich. Rain has stopped since yesterday. Only snow on Mts. Went up mt in Innsbruck on funicular, then a cable car. Played snowballs at top but view poor due to thick fog.
We must carry our passports at all times unlike other trips where we left them in safe. Guide had to take a longer route from Austria back into Germany as traffic going into Germany super slow. We sat a long time when leaving Germany into Austria & the security looked at our bus & waved us through. Guide was sure they would go through bus & check each person. We feel safe but then we do not venture out of the touristy areas or late at night .bus drops us off at door & picks us up at door in our evenings out. Guide stays with us at night during events or dinners. He is very good & checks on anyone not well etc.
Louise sent us more pics. Hofbrauhaus is a famous beer hall. Crowded. Christmas shoppers were out. Visited museum. Soup tureen similar to El Jardin!
It was very funny because some people were bothered by that (veal) and management had the menus re-written but “veal” still was used when it should have said beef.
I asked recently and was told it has not yet been relaxed in RM but probably will be in 2016. No long sleeves required. They do not allow tank type tops but do allow T shirt type shirts.
Safe travel Louise. Miss you guys. Have a great trip.
Tell K I hope to have a discussion at one of the Ps in Mexico during happier times!!
Blueskies Brenda sent us some exclusive pics. Let me know if you want a peek. Estimated completion 2017.
Great report! Thanks so much for sharing Brenda. It’s always fun to share our home away from home with newbies!
Orange “user friendly” is my speed. When Brenda joined us I gave her free reins as long as we are UF.
Jen, It will be great to finally bring your little guy to the P. Looking forward to hearing about that.
Comments:Lynn Shallenberger I do not have kids…but being a former preschool teacher..I noticed how the staff engage the kids and how they care for them at lunch buffets and when they are taking them around the resort….What I have observed, the staff are amazing…and seem well trained when handeling those ” little crisis moments” that kids can have… Staff seem very well trained and Know kids well… Great Job..

Harriet Marels We found the kids club and all of its staff to be amazing too! Karla was particularly amazing!! She made my daughters day every day! They work extremely hard and have a great way of communicating to all nationalities! The shows they do in the evening after less than 1 hours rehearsal are fabulous too. Much love and respect for the team! ?
