5/16

Today we got up early and headed to the famous Neuschwanstein Castle. The bus ride was not too long as it was only about an hour and a half. The castle was packed with tourists from all over the world. The view was incredible. Behind the castle the Alps snowy tips reached into the clouds. The castle itself was interesting to see because only about fifteen of the eighty rooms were actually finished. The finished rooms are beautiful. The tour guide said one piece of woodwork above King Ludwig II's bed took fourteen woodworkers over four years to finish working every day on it. After the castle our group went to the famous church called the Fussen. The Fussen is a massive church and since we were there on a holiday there was a celebration taking place right next to it. The celebration was cool to see because many of the older men were dressed in traditional Bavarian garb. The men had on lederhosen and the hats with feathers sticking out of one side. After getting back to the hotel, I took a short nap and then went and got dinner. For dinner a few of us went to Salsalitos. Yes, Salsalitos serves Mexican food. Honestly the food was not bad at all, but yes I can now officially say I had Mexican food in Germany.
