We've just come back from two glorious weeks in Germany! We went to four main places, as illustrated in this nice simplified map:
We started out in Munich for Jonno and Claudia's wedding. It was a bit of a kiwi-fest, what with staying with Kerstin, Lindsay, baby Yana and Jo & Steve and hanging around with Julian & Jana as well. We spent a good deal of time getting well acquainted with the German traditional biergarten. Mark also liberated a mega 1L drinking stein from a particularly memorable biergarten under a pagoda during a thunderstorm.

The wedding itself was lovely - it wasn't the actual ceremony, more like a party but with German wedding games and songs and poems about the happy couple (mostly in German, but funny none the less). Claudia looked absolutely gorgeous in her dress and Jonno looked pretty hot too (sorry about the fuzzy photography, I blame the champage):

We did plenty of sight-seeing around Munich as well. Especially cool was the permanent wave in one of the rivers, which people surf on all the time. It was quite fascinating to watch.

After five days in Munich we already felt that we'd had enough wurst, cheese and good German beer to last the rest of the trip, so off the Lake Constance we went for some serious exercise ...(you'll have to wait for the next post to hear about this).

But I don't WANT to WAIT until the next post to find out about your adventures.
pout.
manners left when you left the country did they? Sheesh ;)
How about some smaller pics next time. You say J and C look good and then post a pic of them that's so small none of us can verify your statement. :-(
This is a cool blog. In fact, it's so cool that I think I might have to make a link to it from our blog...
