After a lovely walk through Bavarian meadows and forest I was on my merry way. I wish there were some way to bottle this country air; it is redolent of new-mown grass, blooming wild flowers with a soupçon of cowshit. (Well, this is the country, after all!). I'm on my way to the Italian lake of Lago di Como. I head south towards Reutte in Tirol, the next town just over the border in Austria. Before that I drive through Pfronten im Allgäu. I wanted to stay in this town because I had been here before, but no hotel options came up on Expedia (and I have been booking all my hotels at expedia.com). I stopped long enough to take the photo of the parish church with a background of mountains. It just doesn't get prettier than this. The weather is still gorgeous, though it is getting warmer and warmer (but I'm not complaining).
