We took a trip to the south-east corner of Germany to the Black Forest for the weekend. We went with the new Area Controller and his family. The first stop we made was here at the town of Bermersbach. You can see the church on the next hill.
Then we went on to the beautiful Black Forest town of Schiltach. Marilynn is behind Evan Larson and his daughter Megan.
Now you can see Megan, Mindy, and Evan Larsen with Marilynn walking by the museum.
Here are the Larsen's again. This time they are in front of the world's biggest cuckoo clock which is located in Hornberg-Niederwasser.
Next door to the big cuckoo clock is a shop that makes and sells clocks. The man with me is Adolf Hess. He was born in 1901 and his family has been making clocks since 1780. He is a nice guy and so I bought a beautiful clock that he will put together and send home. So we will not ever see it until we get home.
Then we went to Triberg to look around. This guy walked up to me and said "Dave Madsen, is that you?" It was Clark Lowder and his wife Marsha. They were here touring with friends--so we took a picture of us together.
Here are some of the cuckoo clock shops in Triberg.
We ended up staying in a Gasthaus across the street from the world's biggest cuckoo clock and the store where we bought our clock. Here are the cute beds in our room.
Here and the Larsen's and Madsen's having breakfast.
Here we are in front of the waterfall in Triberg
This is the Triberg Rathaus.
Next is another Rathaus. This time in Freiburg. It is another Black Forest city.
Here are some beautiful fresh vegetables at the market.
And just to make a proper ending to this story, we shared this beautiful Black Forrest Cherry Torte!
