Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (July 2009)
Summer-time = Travel-time We decided to send the children to their grand-parents in Munich for a week. Two 'unattended minors' left Brussels for a one-way flight to Munich at 07:00 in the morning, I have never been that early in the office. A week later we joined the kids and started a visit to show them the city of Munich, nice areas such Marienplatz, Carlsplatz, Deutsches Museum, Tierpark, Olympia hallen, Bavaria Filmstudios, ... etc. |

The roof construction of the Olympia Park remains after all these years an impressive construction.
Also the visit of the Bavaria Filmstudio, a photo while visiting the set of 'Das Boot' |

We also visited Austria, on our way to Vienna we admired the monastery of Melk. | ||

The last week I was alone with the kids in Switzerland, a school friend of my daughter came over (another unattended minor travelling). I decided to go hiking with them, including a high Alps tour crossing snow till the top of the Mont Fort (3330 m). | ||
