Last time I went there was at the time I lived in Frankfurt. My sister came to visit and we went camping on the shores of the Chiemsee Lake in Bavaria. It is a gorgeous place. We had some misfortune on one very stormy night, and had to abandon the tent and sleep in the car! Of course it was not clever to pitch the tent right by the lake under a tree... but we had fun! And the other campers who had caravans were very helpful and lent us washing lines and pegs. Everything was fine.
On our way to the lake, we visited Neuschwanstein, a beautiful yet odd castle designed by Ludwig II, 'the Mad King'. Amazing place. We also spent a day at Garmisch-Partenkirchen, where we did a bit of hiking. There was a BMW-motorbikers rally on that day. Very odd but friendly atmosphere.
During our stay at the lake, we made a one day visit to Salzburg, where we saw Mozart's birthplace and wondered through the town.
We had a great time in Bavaria and Salzburg!
Too bad I won't be going there for leisure tomorrow!
