Central Europe 1

August 11, 2007

What to do when one gets to switch cars and drive a Renault Mégane CC convertible for 4 weeks? A lot of cruising! Whenever I had the chance, I opened the roof on the way to work in Utrecht and Brussels. The only weekend with nice weather we went to the Belgium coast, cruising to Oostende and back to Amsterdam through Zeeland. But the Netherlands and Belgium are not the best cruising countries, with boring straight highways, and generally bad weather, especially this summer.

So I planned a 9-day trip through the foothills of the Alps, all the way to Slovakia. It gave me a chance to explore some of the sights of Central Europe that I had always wanted to visit: Mount Säntis (Switzerland), Neuschwanstein Castle (Germany), Mount Kehlstein in Berchtesgaden (Germany), and Bratislava (Slovakia).
