Jaegerhof Hotel St. Gallen

In den letzten zwei Wochen habe ich einiges an neuer Ausrüstung zusammengekauft. Unter anderem ein neues Zelt und warme Winterkleidung.

Letztes Wochenende habe ich meine neue Ausrüstung das erste mal ausprobiert und bin am Freitagabend mit ...

We were planning to go to Liechtenstein but thought we may as well as it was sort of on our way. It's the worlds 6 smallest country so it would have been rude not to go..haha.

We didn't drive to the main town but to another.. where really there wasn't anything. I did get a photo with the tourist sign though. Had to somehow prove I'd been there!

... can watch all the processes they go through to make the cheese, which was pretty interesting! We watched the cheese-makers go through all the processes for quite a while and had a drink at in the restaurant before going back to Gossau for an authentic cheese Fondue!

We got up early the next morning and said goodbye to Heinz and Elsa, and caught our 1st train to get to Prague. It took us about 10.5 hours to get there.. LOOOOOONG time sitting on trains!!

Our third stop of the day was our first in Austria. Now I was entering undiscovered lands! Feldkirch is right on the Switzerland border. The old town centre is surrounded by towers, and a castle sits on a hill above.

We explored Feldkirch and a few of its towers. The old town is quite charming with its colorful buildings, trickling fountains, and small shops. When we tried to ...

... weren't too interested so they took Lincoln (who couldn't go with us) and we went to have a look. It was a rewarding visit. It is amazing to think how long ago some of those books and transcripts were written, and how well cared for they must be to remain in excellent condition. The library itself is breathtaking, with leather bound books lining the shelves, large windows (no doubt filtered), elaborate woodwork and staircases, and a muraled ceiling ...

... the trail through the forested area, up switchbacks with short stops at lookouts in small clearings to the city below. It didn't take long to reach the castle. It is closed to the public but sits right next to a public road so I walked along the road to get a good look, then continued along the road up a hill a bit further so I could get a nice view.

I navigated my way back down to the city below and checked out some of the shops ...

... Watch to take to Canada. Once home I go into my room and come out to Silvia making Mimosas, coming from my home this was a shock, to see the mom making a drink. then I heard a nock on the door and it was friend one (still no name) and family in to all there to have mimosas and say goodbye to Fabian. apparently friend one and husband are god parents to Fabian. no once god ...

OK, last night here, it has been great. Big meal cooked, trip to chocolate factory and got some swiss chocolate yummm. Just good night with Vince, Ben , and Heike. To Paris in morning, my host there is leaving and will leave a key. I will be staying with 4 girls from 2 other countries. I will get the big room, which works for me, well until Kevin gets home on Tuesday. Talk soon, Beverly

Today we drove to Lindau, Germany, and did our own walking tour. Lindau is an island in the eastern part of Lake Constance. It was quite overcast, but still lovely. I'm sure that on a warm summer day it would be filled with people sitting in the sun and enjoying all the open air cafes.


Then we were off around the lake ...
