GERMANY 2010 -- 10

+ updated at 11:39am ESDT on Saturday, June 5, 2010.

+ JUNE 5 UPDATE: I have been checking the British Airways Flight Status daily. Since we are now only 3 days from departure, I will check even more frequently especially since the cabin crew strike is still a factor.  Latest check shows everything is OK.

+ I have Germany on my mind since the Wilde-Bartle team is headed to Germany next Tuesday for 2 weeks.  We will be staying in Frankfurt (one night); Berlin (3 nights); Nuremberg (3 nights); Füssen (4 nights) and; Munich (2 nights).  I will post from time to time at The Abundancetrek Travel Blog and my Facebook and Twitter pages.

We are planning day trips to Dresden, Rothenburg and the Zugspitze.

+ The base town for the Zugspitze, Germany's highest peak, is Garmisch-Partenkirchen. On a day toward the end of our trip we intend to take a bus and a train from Füssen to Garmisch-Partenkirchen and back.  On another day in Füssen we will be visiting the nearby "fairytale castles."     

+ Weather Info: 
Garmisch-Partenkirchen (Base town for Zugspitze, Germany's highest peak)

+ The strike at British Airways will still be going on when we head for Germany next Tuesday. But, as of now our flights are scheduled to take off on time. So, I am hopeful that we can arrive in Frankfurt on June 9 and leave on June 22 as planned.
