Day 18 Branneburg
Where: Branneburg
When: Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2005
Today was basically a rest day.
All three of us slept in and did not go to breakfast until about 9:30. Went to Ursula’s to do laundry.
While Maria and Deanna went to drop the laundry, I walked to town to look for an ATM. Found one and took the trail back to Ursulas house. Her house is along a creek which has gravelled walking trails on each side of the creek. The water on the creek is clear as it all comes from the mountains.
I got back and we decided to go to Wendelstein. The Highest mountain around Brannenburg. Ursula said that it was late to go there and really enjoy the experience. This was around 2 pm. We started walking to the cog train station that takes visitors to the top when we said that Ursula was probably right. So we went to the pension to have lunch and relax. I had schweinschnitzel und sauerkrauten for lunch und weiss beir. Now that’s a good lunch. At 6€, that beats a big mac any day.
All three of us then walked to town and hiked in the trails.
We got back to Ursula’s around 5 ish and Mathilda was there. She is Don’s second cousin or something like that. She is a fun lady with a very bubbly personality. She asked Deanna in her thick German if we had lunch. Deanna did not quite understand and said nein. She should have said ja.
So the next thing we here is the frying of some schweinschneitzel (sp). Basically I had another two pork chops with salad. Man was I full. With dessert and beir or rather Radla ( a mixture of lemon water and beer, very good tasting, german drink this when they don’t want to get drunk).
Generally onenk that they would lose weight when they travel. I think Brannenburg will be an exception. They’re just feeding us like crazy.
Kevin showed up at around 6 and Mathilda quickly fed him too.
The night ended with making plans for the rest of our stay in Brannenburg.
Auf Wiedersehen!
