To Bavaria (Bad Oberdorf)

Coming out of Switzerland we pass Lake Lucerne - one of my favourites for the crystal blue colour.




Onwards to Lake Constance (German Bodensee) which serves as the border between Switzerland, Austria and Germany. It's Europe's third largest lake at 40 miles long and is the source of the river Rhine.

Our stop off is at Bregenz in Austria where we previously went to the opera to see La Tosca.

Opera - me!

Well yes as the location is a bit special - it's on the Lake. It was used in the first James Bond film with Daniel Craig.

The current show is Andrea Chenier.


The impressive stage is on the lake and the auditorium on the shore.




Bregenz mind games


The trip is drawing to a close as we get back on familiar ground. The forecast for our day off in Bad Oberdorf is not good :(

Then one nights stop on the Moselle before heading back for the ferry and again the forecast is not good - but this is nothing compared with the weather back in the UK so no complaints.
