Garmisch and the Alps
From Fall Trip to Europe, 2008 - Gram & Granddaddy in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany on Sep 23 '08
Arriving at one of our favorite places in Europe - the foot of the German alps near Zugspitkze, the highest point in Germany. An ideal little village with a beautiful view of alps all around us.
Arriving here around 5 PM. Even with the low cloud cover over the alps the GPS which worked perfectly yet brought us into Garmisch a different way than we did before avoiding the traffic around Munich and right through the alps. They are as magnificant as ever!!! I just love Garmisch. The town is touristy yet so beautiful. Coming into Edelweiss it is as we remembered. Had a great dinner in the Pullman Place restaurant (T-bone and Prime Rib -superb). Went to bed about 10 pm and woke about 11 am - time change!
It is light rain today so we just walked the town enjoying the idealic atmosphere. Temp is 40-50 but we were prepared. I truly love this place and feel like I belong near where my ancestors are from for hundreds of years.
