Thanks for the lovely tips ;-)
I've been to this beautiful city a couple of times but unfortunately when I was living in Germany I asn't able to get a ticket to the passion play. hopefully next time
I heard of the name but didn't know it was such a pretty town.
I read about Oberammergau and it's passion plays in an funny XIX ct. english book and always was wondering how that place really looks like. You gave that place some lights!!!
I too holidayed with my mum and visited here over 30 years ago. Such a beautiful place, it was snowing when I was there!
Obberammergau is a so nice place!!I like it!!
