Bavaria is one of my favorite areas of Germany - the others are the Rhine Valley around Cologne and the Black Forest close to Freiburg driving upto Basel. And Munich is a close second to my favorite city in Germany - Berlin. I spent Saturday in Germany this past weekend, and was among other places, in Freising - a small, cozy and typical Bavarian village (and incidentally home to the Pope when he was teaching/studying). It was a nice summer day, beautiful outside with views up through to the Alps on the south and expansive bucolic countryside to the north. The fields green, and the corn was almost ready for harvesting. I am back in Germany next month and looking forward to all the fall harvest festivities at their peak. I have never driven to Salzburg from here, though that's on the list of things to do with the family, now that we have a budding musician amidst us.
Most of these posts are written from airports between check in and flight boarding times. I fly about two airplane flights a week with at least 30 mins of wasted time in the checkin to board process. That's more than two full days per year in time that could be put to better use. This is written in reclaiming some of that time. Enjoy
