there’s nothing wrong with kids that trying to reason with them won’t make worse

Königssee

Happy to ride the ferry

devil horns

Obersee

My mountain goats

Marmot fat?  Who knew?

So very, very green.   Can you see the happy cows?

Even in summer the glacial waters flow



The morning weather wasn't promising,
but we had sun all afternoon!
Our last day we took the ferry boat out to St Bartholomew's, which used to be a monastery, but is now a restaurant; and then we continued on to Salat, where we hiked in to the Obersee.  The lake is the most amazing green/aqua color which is hard to describe because I've never seen a lake look that color.  Partly it is so beautiful because only electric boats have been allowed since 1909 and the entire national park is beautifully maintained and protected.   We marveled at all the green and wondered how many people drink the fresh buttermilk offered at every stop.
