LAT report

Leaving Munich on train heading for Obergammerau will be two trains with one transfer in Murmau then final train to Obergammerau.  We had plenty of time in Munich so went to breakfast. The train was great it was very clean and we had great seats..nobody else on it that we saw.  The scenery on this and the next train was to DIE for!  Like I said to Linda this is God's country!  Incredible hills with snow ...but the sky was blue as blue could be!  Obergammerau is a quaint artsy town that has cobblestone streets, little shops, wonderful restaurants and bier!!  We walked around and shopped and met for late dinner I had a bowl of ghoulash and I loved it!  Ate it with a pretzel and many beers or biers. Had a great night sleep weather was shirt sleeve weather no coats unbelievable.

LMR report

Left Munich early for the train station.  Arrived in time to have a nice breakfast....best of the trip!  Took train to Murnau.  When we arrived in Obergammerau train was there and we ran towards it in order not to miss it.  There were only three other people on the train.  Magnificent scenery - lakes and small towns.  Arrived in Obergammerau - called the hotel for a shuttle, told them we had lots of luggage .  They sent both a shuttle and a cab.  Hotel is in the center of town.  Truly lovely.  Our room is two story like we had in Paris only much nicer.  Two bedrooms one with a shower one with a tub.  We then walked around town and met back at our place every hour with Candy and Dick for beverages outside of our hotel under umbrellas.  Found two stores which sell Birkenstocks as well as a brand called Finnconcepts, made here in Germany, couldn't decide si bought both.  LAT got Internet access so we received much appreciated emails from home.  There are adorable shops and we had dinner outside.  Tomorrow we are going to King Ludwig's palace.  Till then...!
