Germany & Austria Trip


Today we will visit another lake at Prien and board a boat to Herrenchimsee island where the King Ludwig’s last palace is situated. The palace has been built to resemble the Versailles but in the smaller scale.



Another island to visit is the Fraueninsel (Ladies’ Island). There is a small lovely village.

Then we visit Wasserburg, of which we see the town picture from the Prien information office this morning. The town is about 70 kilometers from Munich which will be our last stop. The only accommodation we find is the hotel. Without doubt that the price per night will be beyond our limit budget. So we follow the GPS recommendation to go to Familotel at Amerang, about 20 kilometers from Wasserburg.


The minute that we walk into the lovely decorated hostel restaurant and see the room offered. Without any hesitation we all agree to stay here, although the price is quite higher compared to those we already stayed in this trip. But the bonus point is that the friendly owner is allowed us to use their kitchen, of which we plan to cook our Thai food for the first time in this trip.



Another dinner room at the hostel.

Dinner is also included in the price. We have salad, pumpkin and carrot soup, chicken, homemade ice cream with peace and as many drinks as you want (Beer or Wine). The food is very delicious.

Guests are all friendly and when we notice the telephone stand and wonder what it is. A lady guest comes to explain that the red light at the their room number will be on if the child left in the room has made some noise. The parents then can come and listen to the sound in their room and decide whether they should go up to the room or not. The hotel is designed to be the family hotel with a lot of facilities and program offering to the children. One of the guests told us that her family has visited this hotel since she was young. After their dinner little guests are playing and running around together before watching cartoon movie in another room.
