On Monday afternoon we walked up to the Buchbuehl in Ostrach
The whole crew with my uncle Fritz and his wife Maria after our hike
Monday night we all went to the Schwabentherme in Bad Saulgau, well known for the thermal springs
This was the first time that I visited the Schwabentherme in daylight
Tuesday morning we traveled to Meersburg to catch a ship to the flower Mainau island
Amy and her mom Cheryl look happy on the ship
With my mom on the ship
I guess it feels like a vacation now
The Pfahlbauten in Unteruhldingen remind us of times when folks here lived on the water
The blimp Zeppelin flew over our heads. If not so expensive, that would be a fun way to see the Lake of Constance
A large crew of workers on the flower island Mainau makes this possible
These flowers are "surprisingly" named fringed tulips
A sea of colors greets the visitors here
A very lucky shot inside the butterfly exhibit
Everyone is "hunting" for butterflies
Yes, caught another butterfly
A butterfly ready to take off
Now that butterfly exhibit was excellent
Some of the flowers are not blooming yet
After a long day of hiking around the island
Amy and my mom in front of one of the restaurants on the Mainau
Waiting for the ship Baden to carry us back to Meersburg
My mom, Georgia and Cheryl had a great time on the island Mainau
Downtown Meersburg is quite quaint
The Basilika Birnau is one of the most stunning small churches in Europe (photography inside is not allowed though)
But I did find a nice image online of the stunning interior
The view from the Basilika Birnau is beautiful too
