While visiting my brother (who was stationed in Germany at the time), we took a road trip. Out of the misty morning appeared this castle. Just like a fairy tale. When we got closer and pulled off the road for pictures, I could hear all of the cow bells ringing, as a herd moved towards us, probably wondering what we were doing. <br /><br />So magical.<br /><br />Your blog posts are bringing back lots of happy memories.

We'd really like to visit Europe, but we're waiting until we're on the East Coast again! Or least on the Mainland. It looks like your trip was pretty cool! I'm somehow not that surprised that the tickets were sold out at Neuschwanstein. I feel like it's the most recognized/popular castle in Germany! Maybe even the world.Natashalhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08176159532063740139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806686507038523712.post-73575232454838869362015-08-19T17:36:45.322-04:002015-08-19T17:36:45.322-04:00Wow, can you imagine watching one be built!

I watched a documentary on his structures and was glued to the tv! The towers of Burg Eltz are so charming. How interesting about the branches within it.Miss Val's Creationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11200441034267532187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806686507038523712.post-56722678557358164222015-08-18T08:53:32.313-04:002015-08-18T08:53:32.313-04:00Spectacular!

His family also was from the town of Tann (fam name being von der Tann) and they owned a castle there too. Small one. When his grandparents visited Germany, they tracked down the address and went there. Apparently the distant German relatives were less than thrilled at the Americans that showed up to say hi. I think it was literally a meeting at the door, 'that's nice, bye' and shut the door.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.com
