Camping and Castles!!

Morgan is not amused to be up!
The ever-popular camping food--JELL-O!

What IS she thinking about? These were so cool--battery-operated glow sticks and night shot camera settings. COOL!




Neuschwainstein Castle
THE definitive german castle--the one Disney used to create the Disneyland castle. Sometimes known as Sleeping Beauty's castle though everyone here refers to it as Cinderella's castle. King Ludwig built it in the same town as his father's (Hohenschwangau) but much higher on the hill and definitely larger. He was a very interesting character. I suggest you wickipedia him. There is a gorge/waterfall and bridge behind it which is what we are standing on. There were 11 paraglider's coming off the mountain behind us. Major winds.

I don't know who this could be. . .
My girls in front of the weird-o water spouting horses. Must say though-we loved this statue!
