Europe 2020, Day 11: The Salt Mines

Life is a series of hellos and goodbyes. I’m afraid it’s time for goodbye again…

Billy Joel

So this was our final day of activities. After another terrific and plentiful hotel breakfast, we were off to the Salt Mines, which are in Germany (although we did briefly drive into Austria to get there). We suited up and then began our one hour tour. Part science and education, part novelty and fun, the tour proved very interesting, and, once again, we did a great job of supporting the German economy with our purchases in the salt mine souvenir shop.

Then it was off to discover one village in the Bavarian Alps and have lunch. This was a beautiful spot with some amazing views.

Our final stop proved short and rainy as we drove by the Nymphenberg Palace back in Munich. Then it was off to our final dinner. And our trip ends the way it began in London, on the metro! Tomorrow it’s breakfast and then off to the airport.

 

Day 11 is in the books!
