We had a great time in Europe!! It's taken me a while to get all the pictures together and edited. I hope you enjoy seeing where we went, and what we saw. It truly was a trip of a lifetime. I am going to post the pictures in video form in a few different posts because its easier to upload smaller video files. This is part 1- leaving for Germany and a couple of pictures from Germany. We left SLC and stopped for a brief layover in Atlanta. Then we were off the Munich, our first stop. When we arrived at our hotel it was too early to check in, so we locked up our bags and hit the streets of Munich. It was kind of scary b/c it was the first time I had been somewhere where I had no idea what anything said, or how to communicate with anyone..unless they mercifully spoke English, which most people did. It was humbling to be so dependent on the kindness of complete strangers! Anyway, mom knew we wanted to see the Glockenspiel..a giant clock tower with full size figurines that moved to music..and WE FOUND IT! We were quite proud of ourselves! Then our tour bus picked us up and we headed out for our first tour..to Dachau Concentration Camp. It was very somber, quiet and an amazing experience. The boys were so tired...it was midnight Utah time...and early morning in Germany. But they did their best and we saw the barracks, gas chambers and ovens they used at the concentration camp. We will never forget that experience and we have first hand knowledge that it DID happen. We were tired but grateful for the experience.
