AH! Germany! Literally cannot wait until we get to go back and explore more of it! As soon as I found out we were headed to Garmisch I was excited for a lot of things - but I counted down the days until we could go see the famous Neuschwanstein Castle.

We went with some good friends and met new friends & had a blast. ... Read the Post
Verona is just 45 minutes from our front door, so with a free afternoon we decided to go explore and start putting our To-Do list together.
