Germany

After Jon finished his office time in England, we took off to Germany for 2 days. We had a really fun time - even though Jon's wallet was stolen in the airport, and I booked tickets that were PM instead of AM, but after the first couple of hours there, we were having a great time.

We ate dinner the first night in a touristy spot, but the atmosphere was super fun!


We went to see the set of Castles near the Austria border -Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau, then crossed the border to have dinner - just to say we went to Austria too.






Vils, Austria



England

This is us wandering around Guildford, trying to stay awake long enough to get over jet-lag.



Sunday afternoon we took off to Portsmouth and got to do a walk through of the ship Victory - which fought in the Battle of Trafalgar.




This is back in Guildford - my favorite building - the Guild. It was interesting and I got to wander through by myself and sit as long as I wanted in the plush velvet chairs.



Guildford Castle - just ruins left.



I liked this narrow little walking path between the buildings - Character.



This is in Brighton - it is a Royal Palace. It was an interesting walk through, but very gaudy. I decided to go to Brighton just to say I had been there - oft mentioned location from Pride and Prejudice.
