Neuschwanstein Castle



Thank you Claire and Paula for our birthday presents. The guided walks, boat cruises and visits to places like this were excellent. And also thanks to Lisa and Justin for putting the trip together.




A forty minute walk took us past the castle to Marien Bridge.

King Ludwig II had a passion for swans and Wagner. One room had over 100 swan pieces like above.
