So you wouldn't think that my Valentines Day was great. We had to leave Fussen and the magical views of castles and the Alps. We traveled for over 12 hours on 1 bus and 6 trains with 2 children. Whew!
But.....
Really it was an amazing Valentines Day! We traveled through the Alps of Germany and Austria, and saw many vineyards in Italy. The Alps were snow covered and awe striking!! The vineyards were endless, of course they were just brown because of the winter, but there were a lot of them!! I got to spend the entire day observing the wonder and beauty which God created! Really there is nothing I can say to do justice to what we saw! So I will saw the best I can. Here are some of the 100's of pictures we took that day.
We not only got to enjoy this travel but we were on our way to see our friends that live in Reno Centese, Italy. That is in northern Italy between Ferrara and Bologna if you are curious. If you still don't have a clue it is near Venice and Florence too; within 2 hours by train. We left the hotel at 9:20 in the morning and arrived at our friends house at 10:30 at night. (and yes they are in the same time zone.)
This was the beginning of Italy. We had to get a picture of this and wonder...is this what they drive in a high speed chase? No one will ever take Italian police seriously if that is their standard issue squad car. Why not drive a VW Bus or something. Yeah, not a good indicator for us to know we had crossed into Italy!
Then at one of the stops in Verona we realized they travel in packs!
Who knew that Italy had castles too? These aren't the only ones we'd see either.
