Sack the Castle

We got up early to sack the Castle in Balzers. Susan and Clarence had gone for a jog and were delayed getting back so we were a bit late for the sacking. We had a great breakfast... one must have a full belly when sacking a castle.

We drove around the castle three times and couldn't find a place to park and parked so far away that by the time we walked to the castle we had to postpone the sacking.

The castle gave an unbelivable 360 degree view of the city. It was spectactular.

We walked down to a church and walked through a graveyard. Fairly resent were the dead. The graves were kept like gardens..... incredible.

I drove today, and we decided to make the GPS pick a southern route with less super highways. It was the most impressive drive. The drive through towns and up and down mountains made for a fun and exciting day but we were too late to sack the Castle outside Fussen. Tomorrow we will conquer it.

We left Liechtenstien, traveled through Switzerland and entered Austria today and are now in a beautiful hotel in Fussen, Germany.

Tomorrow back to Austria.
