SNOWBIRDS TAKE ON THE DANUBE WALTZ ENDS TODAY!

So, we got to the airport about FOUR HOURS before our flight back to the States!  Well, don’t feel one bit sorry about it, because we certainly didn’t.  Having access to a lounge with no limits on the eats and drinks made the wait A-OKAY! Our flights back to the States were seamless and we arrived in our bed in Noblesville by 1AM!  Ahhh, it was good to be home, but what an AMAZING adventure it was!  Thanks for following along!  Until next time….

OUR LAST LUNCH IN MUNICH WITH GERMAN RELATIVES!

John and I woke up after another great night’s sleep in our BARELY BASIC hotel room, (with no midnight serenade, unfortunately), and walked across the street to another adorable breakfast cafe, this one featuring pancakes!  (August and Jonah, you would have LOVED it!) This sign made us laugh!  (We aren’t crabby, but we will be returning to the beach SOON!!!)  John and I loved the Key West decor and their coffee was out-of-this-world delicious! We walked around the neighborhood a bit, savoring everything about a Saturday morning in Munich!  It wasn’t long before it was time to get back, packed, and checked out of our BARELY BASIC hotel where we stored our bags for the rest of the day!  Our German cousins, Irmgard Diedam and her daughter, Vivika, met us in front of the hotel!  It was wonderful to finally meet them both! We walked to another fabulous area that John and I had not yet discovered!  It was bustling with people everywhere and we LOVED IT! ...

MUNICH, GERMANY!

At breakfast, I searched my photos to see when (and if) I had been in Munich before.  And, lo and behold, I found pictures of John and I in Munich during our very first international trip in March of 1984!   And, would you believe, I “blogged” our trip way back then before anyone even knew what blogging was all about!  (Oh, how I wish I had done this for all of our vacations.  Luckily, I started blogging in 2010 when we moved to Dubai and have kept it up for every major trip we’ve taken.  Oh, the memories I have captured!...
