My adventures in the land of Germania.




First big thing we did was go to a pro soccer game, which was cool but im not a fan of soccer so diffrent for me, but still cool. The opposinf teams fans set off a smoke bobm which i found really entertaining, to say the least. i have to start listing the things we did out of order cause i cant remeber them in order, so bear with me.



We went to a high ropes course that was extremely cool, i passed the test but i couldnt climb the easiest one since it was so high, but i climbed the medium diffuculty one since it was shorter. every time we go to germany and we have to do anything with my cousins i ride in the older ones car since he likes heavy metal.



that was when we went to Oberhausen where my cousin lives with his girfriend, we stayed in her parents house, inside you could tell they werent guarding their money to much(they had records of new cd's!!!!!!!!)



Then me and my brothers had to suffer an 8 hour car ride to Bavaria, which is in the Alps. let me tell you to me the Alps are cooler than the Rockies(and ive been to both). we stayed at a B&B that was on the side of a mountain, which is right next to the national luge, and bobsled team training area. The second day we were in Bavaria, we hiked up a mountain since we were told that they held a church service up there, once a year(we got to the top only to find out they were having mass). we decided not to stay for the service, so on our way down we ran into my mom- we were all willing to bet against her coming up the mountain but she did-suprisingly.



we also did a boat tour on the Konigsee which is the cleanest lake in Germany. we then went to a salt mine, where you have to get in a suit and they take you underground for a tour, they have these really cool slides that you sit down on slide further down.



We also went to the Kehlstein house or the Eagles Nest, where Hitler lived for only 2 times, cause he had a fear of heights, its built on top of a mountain, i bought a book.



then we went to the castle at the top of the page, built by King Ludwig II in the late 1800's her are some pictures at the top of the page.
