Germany

Soo0...I'm finally posting my fun trip to Germany! I went out to Germany with my two brothers to see my sister who was living there with her cute family- Her husband, Matt was stationed there for two years with the Army, so before they moved back to the states, we were lucky to go out for a fun trip to see parts of Germany! We were able to go to Rothenburg, Munich, Dachau, Prague in the Czech Republic, and Austria! So here are lots of pictures from our trip....So fun!Detroit airport waiting for our flight to Frankfurt, Germany

We were lucky to get First class...NICE!

Just outside Matt and Steph's house- This beautiful church was just across the street

A little tired, but so excited to be in GERMANY!
On our first day we headed over to a historic city...Rothenburg- I loved this place! A lot of history and gorgeous homes, shops,churches, views- We had fun-


So cute toy store- my kiddies would have loved this place! I got in trouble for taking a few pictures:)










Totally scared of heights and some how I ended up on top of this little look out point on the top of this tall building- Beautiful view, but very scary!











Naughty boys













Night tour in Rothenburg...our guide



After our tour, we headed over to a German hot spot- here I am trying a Yummy non- alcoholic German beer! Yuck

My brothers

Say "Cheese"



Munich- Munchen




Hofbrauhaus restaurant- So good!









Loved going into these beautiful, old churches





Stopping for some lunch at a little doener kebap shop

So good...mine was a veggie doener










Prague-Praha

























Creepy...right?!





Loved Prague- beautiful city

Austria- Salzburg










Neuschwanstein Castle
So beautiful inside, but we weren't allowed to take any pictures- Ahh...to be royality- One can only imagine:)








Dachau Concentration Camp
Can't even describe the feeling you have when you walk into this place- It is so unbelieveably sad that this happened- Learning more about all that happened during the Holocaust, seeing where some of these things took place is truly scary that human beings could actually do this- It really is crazy...and scary! It was an amazing experience though that I will always remember- Always-

Grave of many thousands unknown













Our last night in Germany, so Matt and Steph took a fun restaurant, The Tazmanian Devil, for some schnitzel



Kevin telling us something very funny....

lots of laughing! Haha!

We had such a great time! Thanks Matt and Steph for being such awesome tour guides! Loved having some sibling time and going to see the beautiful, historic cities in Germany! Good times, great memories and I am so glad I got to take this trip with my brothers and sister! Love you guys-
