Favorite Thing: I loved visiting this little area of Germany for many reasons: the castles, the scenery, the little towns and villages. The people were friendly and the experience was wonderful.
Fondest Memory: It was interesting getting here. We got lost in our rental car driving from Innsbruck, Austria to Schwangau. We went on a snowpass, and definately thought we were lost at one time (although we enjoyed the mountain views). We saw this sign for Neuschwanstein, but after that sign, we didn't see another one! We finally got there around 2:45, and the last tickets were being sold at 3:00pm, so we ran up the hill in the snow, got the last tickets, then waited in a horse drawn carriage for the ride to the castle. The guy who drove the carriage started out late, we got to the castle, ran to the entrance, and our english tour was gone! I ran to the front of the line, the guy let us in, and we barely caught our english tour as it was just entering the castle. I don't know if you would call it a fond memory, but more like an adventure.
