Wolfgangsee to Bodensee, Germany Day 45

A travel day. Left my lovely place by the Wolfgangsee, Austria and drove 4+ hours to another large lake, Bodensee in Germany very close to the Swiss border. Mostly freeway driving today so pretty boring. Drove in Northern Austria, by Salzburg and then into southern Germany through Munich and then here. It’s a weekend so places to stay at the last minute (that I liked 😂) were not plentiful. It’s a hotel at a large marina and hundreds of large expensive sailboats and yachts. There is a sailing school here as well as sailboats for rent. Took a short walk before cocktail hour and lots of people swimming in the lake as well the a short drive in the closest town - Kressbronn. Not much going on there, took the road closest to the water home. Lots of vineyards in the area.

Dinner on the water at the hotel. Great salad with good fish from the lake. A great “pour” of local wine - the smallest you can order is 1/4 liter - 1/4th of a bottle. 😂. Only needed 1 tonight. Actually the local wine was quite good. Germany makes some good whites.Read more
