Janelle finally gets her ice cream

Janelle finally gets her ice cream

A good night's sleep and we're ready to take on today. We have lunch at the restaurant downstairs where Janelle finally - after 5 weeks - gets her ice cream! Then it's time to travel into Split to hook up with our friends, then onto Omis for this next chapter of our...

On the Road Again…

On the Road Again…

We hadn't planned on doing anything but get from point A to point B and then onto point C. But, us being us, we thought, what the heck, let's throw in another adventure. We have time, right? This is how we ended up in Salzburg, Austria. The city known for The Sound of...

Monk Beer

Monk Beer

We only have one destination today, the Engelszell Abbey - it was the last Trappist monastery in Austria. Yes...beer made by monks. Even the rain let up for us to see a bit more on the road here, unfortunately they have huge barriers on the side of the motorway that...

Breakfast Beer vs The Opera

Breakfast Beer vs The Opera

When Jason read about this 'Beer Park' in Zalec, Slovenia, a little town in the middle of nowhere, we knew we had to make the pilgrimage. Traffic jams on the highway and torrential rains foiled our beer plans yesterday, but don't you worry, we are persistent and...

One Road Trip – Two New Countries

One Road Trip – Two New Countries

Today’s the day we leave Munich behind, but it’s never just like that. I was asked, persuaded, yes - convinced to play one more hour of tennis before leaving. Of course I said yes! Then on the road. Today’s mission is a 4.5 hour drive leaving Germany to see two new...

Oktoberfest – Probst, Cheers, Slante

We did it! We made it to Oktoberfest. This bucket list item has been a long time coming. Today was the day!! We were fortunate enough to have two locals come with us to make sure we had an authentic and traditional experience. What we did not expect, and this is 100%...

Back to Bavaria!

Back to Bavaria!

Jason is finally ready to let someone else have some fun on the autobahn! LOL. I get to take my turn driving as we have a 5-ish hour drive back down to Munich. But first, a shopping spree at the chocolate shop to get some gifts and an early lunch at the Donair shop....
