After almost 10 months of being in Europe, and 4 years of being away, we finally made our way North to Germany. We had such a great visit. Relishing the food, the language that we understand (opposed to Italian, that is so difficult for us), and visiting with friends! It was very busy meeting up with friends, getting things done for our apartment, and trying to see all of our favorite sites and stock up on all of our favorite treats. We miss Germany a lot, but it was so nice to go back and enjoy it for a short time!

The beautiful lush fields and Mountains greeted us on our way through the Alps. |
 |
We loved these "comic book-like" road signs (this one warning you not to use your cell phone). These are new since we left. |
 |
Ah yes! Summer Vacation is also known as "Stau Season" (Traffic Jams - oh how fun - yikes!) |
 |
This was taken from our Hotel Window in Innsbruck, Austria - so pretty!! |
 |
A little closer look... |
 |
The drive North takes you through the Brenner Pass, which is a cut-way through the Alps. It is amazing with castles, vineyards, mountains, hills - it is breathtaking (I tried to snap a shot of a castle in the background, but it didn't turn out so well) |
 |
And just this picture epitomizes living in Europe. This is a candle in McDonalds rest stop off the Autobahn (Highway). Need I say more? |
 |
Enjoying the ride! |
 |
Beautiful Innsbruck! |

Snapped this one in a Stau (Traffic Jam) |
