Leavenworth Vacation Day 1

2011.09.09
pixel
We arrived . . . YAY! Each suite has its own separate gazebo with jacuzzi. Headed there as soon as I'm done posting.
pixel
We have a lovely view from our suite.
pixel
The town is just so . . . adorable! There is a city ordinance that any new building has to be approved by the design council to make sure it meets the "Bavarian" specifications.
pixel
So we're walking down the street in a town almost 300 miles from home where we don't know a soul when Derek hears someone say, "Is that my aunt Felecia" Well damned if it wasn't my lovely niece Tess! I was like "WTH?" She lives in Seattle and her swim team was traveling to Wenatchee and stopped here. How weird!
pixel
We were starving by the time we checked into our room and all so we came here for dinner. We got the Wolfgang Amadeus Platter for 2.
pixel
It started with a sample of several (and wonderful) salads and a pear cosmo. Mmmmmm.
pixel
Followed by this platter containing apple-pork bratwurst, red wine & cranberry pork bratwurst, petite pork shanks, grilled Tyrolean ham,
pork schnitzel Wiener Art, Lyonnaise potatoes, spaetzle with wild mushroom sauce, red cabbage, winekraut and homemade sweet mustard. Everything was fabulous!
pixel
We have a sauna in our room! So now we're headed out to the jacuzzi and then in to the sauna. *sigh*
Feeling so good right now. I'll catch up soon.

:o)
