Today we went to Schloss Neuschwanstein, the fairy tale castle that Walt Disney based his logo on. Total tourist trap. But we couldn't have chosen a more perfect day, it was cool, clear and fall's colorful foliage was beautiful. Unfortunately, after we got home, Nate discovered that the camera was on the wrong setting, (set for night pictures from our trip to Zurich), so all of our photos are a little grainy. D'oh!
You probably don't want all the history, it's a bit lengthy, but we had a full tour of the castle and then went on a hike up in the hills to see some amazing views. The tour is a bit bare bones, only 35 minutes, and you are not allowed to take pictures inside the castle or go anywhere cool--like the spires of the tower. Still, it was really beautiful. And we've decided that King Ludwig was definitely a bit of an odd one.
**The unknown guy in one of the pics is Nicolai, one of Nate's work colleagues, who was visiting Munich.

I can see you and Nathan running around the castle chasing each other with an axe, like the chuchi face scene in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. I think it's cool you went there...I would bring my babies...
