Villino Lindau

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.<br><br>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!<br>

... quick sites and then jumped back to Switzerland, crossed through Austria for an hour or so, and bam, were back in Germany, hehe....<br><br>Now I'm at Sebastian's brother's house, where we will go to sleep soon and visit München tomorrow...<br><br>abrazos!<br>

... main city) and the surrounding area, and then walked around the town.<br><br>The next day we went into St Gallen with Elsa. We walked around the old city, and visited their beautiful church and main shopping centres. In the eve Heinz cooked my favorite dinner ever &#8211; Roesti!! And we watched 'Inspector Rex'.<br><br>On Friday Elsa took us to a mountain up a gondola, and we went for a walk. Unfortunately the weather wasn&#8217;t the best &#8211; very ...

... when Lean Green decided he needed some attention, too. So with 3 heads under its bonnet, it was decided to sacrifice the thermometer, which might help with the overheating problem. James whipped it out in no time, and after a check and a top up of the water level, down went the bonnet, and we were ready to move on. <br>Kieran was now getting calls from the Sylkis (his mum &amp; dad) to say that the Range Ravers were also having problems - namely their U/Js were ...

... the day...water, poncho, snacks, compass, and the days hiking plan...perhaps a band aid or two just in case. Yhat should make for a very light load. Oh yes, gotta take the camera cause the plan for tomorrow is to walk to Bregenz, Austria (about 7 miles, take the cable car up the mountain, enjoy the scenery from up there, grab some lunch, and walk back to Lindau. 10 PM and time to call it a day. Will pray ...

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.<br><br>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 ...

Today we were supposed to pick up my son Francis at Friedrichshafen airport. But thanks to the snail pace of British foreign affairs, he is still in Sydney waiting for his passport with the appropriate UK residence visa. They emailed him on Monday that the visa had been approved and his passport would be sent to him by courier from Canberra. I talked to him today, Thursday, and by the sound of things his passport must be ...

... Gottlieben, Switzerland. One of Rick's business associates had made reservations for us at the Hotel Drachenburg. Quite a nice place! Our room seemed very French with a bidet and a chaise lounge. We had lunch there and had dinner with Helmut. I don't have the name of the restaurant, but we had possibly the best poached salmon ever!!

... gorgeous and the views of it and from it are breathtaking.<br> <br> <br> <br>After our tour we drove to Kempten and stayed at the Peterhof downtown. This was our first room with a tv...all German stations, of course!
