Cochem

We really enjoyed seeing Cochem castle. My mom did, however, injure her achilles tendon. We tried waiting for the shuttle bus up to the castle, which is at the top of a steep hill, but it was already full when it got there and only took about 2 more passengers. Instead of waiting another hour, we hiked up the hill. The kids did pretty well and luckily it was a really nice day. Our tour was actually really good even though it was in German. The guide was really animated and great with the kids and spoke to us a little bit in English too. The kids even got a chocolate gold coin from a treasure chest at the end of the tour.

Brayden actually wanted to be in a picture with the girls for a change.

This guy must be from Holland. Check out the bright orange wooden clogs!

How long was your family there for? Looks like you got to travel a lot with them. FUN!
