Germany II



We went to the Newscheinstein Castle from King Ludwig II. It was the most beautiful castle we have ever seen. This castle was built by king Ludwig with the most prestigeous of everything. It was beautiful inside and out and so elegant. It took years and years for the workers to finish it up to his standards. He lived there for only 172 days then was declared insane, dethrowned, and mysteriously found dead days later. The castle was then turned over to the government of Bavaria. Those 172 days were the only time anyone has ever occupied the castle billion dollar castle.



While we were in the cold weather of Germany in the mountains we took advantage of Ruth's first time in the snow and went sled riding. She had lots of fun. The entire ride down the hill she would say "Wwweeeee!" and when at the bottom she would quickly jump up off the sled, raise her arms up and say "Aallrriigghtt!"





Our last night in Germany we took an hour long relaxing carriage ride around the town of Garmisch. It was a beautiful site to see and Ruth loved the horsies as usual.
