MARCH 17

Today we are off to Germany. We will travel through Switzerland, taking the 2nd longest tunnel in the world to get through the Alps: St. Gotthard. We will be arriving in Haslach, destination of our first tour/activities hopefully in the early afternoon. We will visit the traditional costume museum and later on the Silver Mine. By 6 pm we should have checked into the Youth Hostel for dinner and then head off to Hornberg, hometown of Mrs. Hott for a little welcoming ceremony. I hope I will be able to upload the pictures frequently. Please be patient if this cannot happen every night. We will try our best.
