Surrounded by Beauty

These past few days have been some of my favorite! I have loved moving at a slower pace and taking time to really enjoy and soak in the beauty around us. Although the weather has been pretty gloomy and rainy, we've been able to take a few hikes and see some spectacular views!

Wildflowers are everywhere!

Another highlight of the past few days has been exploring some beautiful castles owned by King Ludwig II, one of the last kings before the monarchy ended. The most famous of his castles is Schloss Neuschwanstein, the inspiration for the Disney castle. It was incredible to see the design, both inside and out! This particular one took 17 years to build, and was never fully completed before King Ludwig died. We loved touring the castle and seeing just how extravagant everything was.
