The Beginning of our Vacation

Day One

The Air Travel


Leaving from Mpls-StPaul airport headed for Chicago.






We had a slight delay before leaving headed for Paris, France.

















Day Two

Arrive Paris, France at about 11:40am. It's still about 4:40 am in the Twin Cities.

Arrived Paris about a 20 minutes late. Our layover was only an hour. So we had to hustle to get to the next gate. After waiting for a bus shuttle, we ran into a security gate with an extremely long line. We talked with one of the attendents who took us to the fast line - - that wasn't moving quickly. We finally talked our way to the front of the line and made it to the gate 5 minutes after the departure time. Thanks God the plane was delayed a half hour.


We finally made it to Zurich an hour after the planned landing time. 12:30pm local time; 5:30am Minnesota time.







We found Bill and were off to Garmish, Germany in the Bavarian Alps.























Driving through unbelievable scenery, we arrive at our hotel in Garmish above the town in a valley surrounded by mountains.
