Having successfully traversed the German border, we decided to stay off the Autobahn (which was a parking lot the last time we were on it) and go to Freiburg by way of back roads through the Black Forest. Good choice, for at least we moved the whole time. One small problem was that the spectacular views we should have seen were largely obliterated by the rainy day and the fact that we were literally driving through a cloud for the first part of the journey*.
Things cleared up and we were treated to some great alpine vistas, the Schwartz Wald being somewhat similar to the Green Mountains in Vermont (except a lot more pine/fir). Stopped in a town for some incongruous but tasty Indian food.
Ill-advised photo taken while driving.
There's a great view out there somewhere!
Here comes the sun. It's alright.
*I thought we were supposed to be looking at all the light. An sand and birds and rocks and things. Extra points for those who know that song.
