My brother, my mum and I went on another excursion last month, this time to Kochel-Am-See, located on the shores of yet another beautiful Bavarian lake, the Kochelsee.
Here are a couple of traditional Bavarian farmhouses:
And, to finish off a great day out, only one more thing was needed:
Looking at these photos brought it home to me that the summer is about to end…

Thanks for this inspiring blog! You describe the lanscape etc. like I remember them. Isn’t there the place where the “Blaue Reiter” did meet? With Kandinsky, Gabriele Münther etc.?

I’m guessing it must get cold in Toledo but I absolutely refuse to discuss a change in the weather for at least 3 more weeks. We’ll be having pretty pink leaves quite soon enough, thanks. But I AM happy to talk about those happy dogs. Are they yours? They look genuinely pleased with life. 🙂

The farmhouses are so quaint. Quite picturesque and charming. But I must say I love the doggies enjoying the lake. Someone toss them a ball. 🙂
