Back in The Ole USA!


John and I had a wonderful time in Europe! So much to see and do. I do wish we could have spent more time in a few cities. Our travels started in NYC actually! We landed early from Nashville to JFK and sat in the plane, on the tarmack for 2 hours! We missed our flight to Frankfort, so spent the night in a very shady Ramada Inn by the airport. I am no longer a fan of Delta airlines. I won't share in detail, but they need to provide management classes to their supervisors or lay them off! Geez. We took the train into NYC, ate at Carmine's, went to the Virgin record store and by chance ran into the Naked Cowboy! Nice abs! Took the train back to JFK, and we were off! We started by driving from Frankfort to Munich. I just love Munich! Lots of newer construction, very clean, great shopping, etc! We took a day trip to Neuschwanstein Castle (the Disney Castle). It was amazing and we even got a great treat when we left the castle, SNOW! We had to walk back down the mountain due to the bus and buggy being shut down! Here's a picture of John and I before we started the tour of the castle. We took 2 day trips to Salzburg and visited their awesome Christmas market. I'll continue our adventure in future blogs. Oh, buy the way, girls, if you go to this part of Europe in the winter, a hat, gloves, and scarf are a must! I bought both of my hats at Target and they did the job! Make sure to get a hat that covers your ears, even if you have long hair. I'm sportin my Target hat in the pic!

Thanks for sharing a little bit about your trip to Europe! I'm dying to hear more. I haven't been to Germany, but when I go, I'll have to get your tips. When I was in NYC in October, I could see the Naked Cowboy when I looked out our hotel window into Times Square. Cracked me up! He really draws a crowd. KV
