Semesterferien und Urlaub (VLOG: Feb 13th, 2019)

Published:


The winter semester is officially over! What a ride it has been. My first semester abroad was a wild one, but successful.  Now it’s time for a little vacation. I booked a trip to the Zugspitze, the tallest mountain in Germany.  We took the train from Tรผbingen Hauptbahnhof (main train station) to the snow-covered village of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The trip went smoothly, without delays. Everything went perfectly. Here are some photos from our trip, as well as a couple VLOG entries, from yours truly.

We took the Seilbahn to the top. The Seilbahn is a cable car, newly renovated and reopened.  This is a stock photo of the Seilbahn, followed by photos that I took of it.  The large white area, is the frozen over Eibsee.

The trip was an amazing success! I hope you enjoy my VLOGs and the views from the “Top of Germany!”
