Zugspitz!

Zugspitz!  The highest peak in Germany.  Part of the chain of mountains called the Alps.  Heard of them?  ha ha

We decided to visit the top of the world in Germany during our vacation this summer.  I didn't really stop and think very well about what we were doing...I mean...I didn't think about where we were going...what I'm trying to say is that I ended up in the snow...



...in flipflops.

Aiya.

But, I managed to slip and slide my way around and really it wasn't THAT cold up there and it wasn't like we were going to hike around the peak or anything like that...

We ended up taking the funicular up the mountain....



With breathtaking views of the actual peak...



...the Eibsee (Eib lake)



...the Alps...


...the adorable children...


...and the LARSONS...


We took the train back down...




And then remember that Eibsee we saw up on top?  We decided to dip our toesies in it...it was a beautiful day, after all...



I was glad I wore my flipflops!  :)
