Füssen is at the end of the Romantic Strasse in southern Bavaria (or the beginning if you are travelling in the less usual direction).

It’s a great base to visit the nearby castles of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau.

Wieskirche in Steingaden & Neuschwanstein Castle
The outside reveals nothing of the glorious and striking interior – You are taken aback by the amazing artistry it’s just incredible. The ceiling is fantastic as it is an optical illusion. It appears to be rounded but in fact it is flat.

Trouble in Germany with the water heater
We woke up Friday morning in Koblenz to find that the water heater was leaking. Every now and again the pump started to work on its own which alerted us to the fact that we had a problem. We found a couple of things stored under the bed were wet so decided to turn the water pump off and Ray checked all the push fit joints which all seemed to be in order.

Pompeii, Italy
Visiting Ancient Pompei is a fascinating experience and so much better than we had expected. The whole place is a lot bigger than it looks from the outside too.
