Romantic Strasse, Day4

Romantic Highway
Today's journey took us down the Romantic Highway into Bavaria.  When Harry put the beret on and got behind the wheel of the car, he was in his element.  He drives like anyone else on the autobahn.  How fast can Harry go?  As fast as he wants to.
We toured what is most probably the most famous castle in all of Europe, Schloss Neuschanstein.  This castle provided the inspiration for the Walt Disney Castle.  Weather is fantastic, (50's &60's), scenery spectacular, and the food is great.  We spent the night in Fussen and had a great meal in a local German restaurant. Tomorrow will find us going deeper in the Alps.  We wore pedometers to see how far we have walked.  Yesterday was 15,000 steps and today was only 12,000 steps
