Tim Tam and Patty: This Week Has Just Flown By

Today the sun is shining and its absolutely beautiful outside! :) It really is nice to see! On April 16 we had a BAKE DAY!! We made monster cookies, impossible pie and Annie asked Tam if she could do something with a million peppers, so we made stuffed peppers for supper. The family loved it! Annie said it was nice to come in from outside and be able to sit down and eat. It made us feel really good that we could help in some way. On April 17, we decided to head into Traunstein by bike... wow what a work out. The 16 kilometer round trip was a little more then we anticipated, the uphills and busy highway were a little intense at points but we made it to Traunstein and back in one piece!!Yesterday we went to Prien a Chiemsee to the Islands of Herreninsel (Island of Man) and Fraueninsel (Island of Woman). At Herreninsel we went on a tour of the Royal Palace by King Ludwig II. King Ludwig II built a copy of the Versailles Palace as a "Temple of Fame" in honor of the Sun King Louis XIV of France. The first 3 rooms we saw were never even used. Then we saw King Ludwig II private bedroom, dining room with a elevator for his table to be set below him, study and his dressing room. Our tour guide told us that there are 70 rooms in the Palace and only 20 were completed due to King Ludwig running out of money, makes you wonder why even start something if you can't finish it! It just blew our mind! Then we headed to Fraueninsel we didn't have much time to look around as the last ship to Prien came at 6:00pm so we walked around, climbed a tree and walked out onto the pier. All in all we have had an amazing week and are hoping to head to Salzburg tomorrow. :)
