Germany, Switzerland, Litchenstein, and now Italy

Well we have not had access to the computer lately which is why i have not posted. So lets see if i can catch you up. We left luxembourg Friday morning and took a train to Frankfurt Germany. We actually decided to get off in Tier... or something like that :), and we just walked around there for a couple of hours and then got back on the train. Tier was more of a historical town with cobblestone streets and little shops. The markets were just opening up when we got there so that was fun to see. We got into Frankfurt around mid afternoon and of course decided to take a walk and see what was around. It turned into a three hour walk but no fear i swear we stopped every half an hour to buy something to eat. I honestly think we are eating our way through Europe. We of course had a german pretzel, bratwarst, and i cant even remember what else but a lot of good food. We got a little lost because we thought things looked familiar so we kept walking towards them and then we realized we were walking in a circle. That night we got back to the hotel around six and took a little nap which was five hours. I guess we were tired and for ann to sleep that long is simply amazing. We then just went to bed for the night but people were up and about til five in the morning. Then on Saturday morning we got up early, since we slept so much it was no problem, and got a train to switzerland to be with the relatives. We got there around five i think. They live way up in the Alps so it was beautiful but cold and raining. Well we got to go now so thats all you get :) I am in Italy now until tomorrow, venice and its beautiful and the sun is out!!!!
