Somewhere nestled in the mountains of Southeastern Germany lies Bad Reichenhall, a little town devoted to water healing and ski enthusiasts in the winter. For us, it was everything that we needed to relax and get ready for heading home. This place is gorgeous and I can't rave enough about our hotel which overlooked a little pond which the girls loved.
And, all of the things that they had to keep our kids happy- especially this trampoline, which they couldn't get enough of. I seriously want one of these for our backyard- but not sure we have enough space!
In the morning, we were greeted by a wonderful outdoor breakfast (tons of cherries!!). I think I ate three bowls of yogurt with cherries/raspberries- yum.
This little swing was perfect too- with cows in the distance... could you get anymore idyllic?
This was the hotel.
And the view of the little pond from our balcony that woke us up each morning.
A walk to the lake.
Our balcony was in the middle and sooooo relaxing to sit on at night and in the morning.
Steve jumping right in! This little pond was perfect for swimming- it seriously was warmer than some of the pools we swam in. 
My two little fishes.
And the cute little boat we sat in on and off for 3 days.
Put on your sunglasses, folks, yes, I am florescent white.
We took a tram to the top top of the mountain.
I'm not usually that afraid of heights, but for some reason I couldn't stop thinking about these cables snapping! It kept on going higher and higher and higher. 
And higher!!
We were so high- we arrived in the clouds!
These were right below us- which seems really crazy, because I've only seen these types of clouds from the airplane! We were really really high!
Emi wanted to ride the ski chairs!
After we rode the tram, we headed home for some more swimming and a lakeside picnic dinner. So relaxing. I could sit on those chairs for days.
When Steve saw some fish, he immediately jumped up and asked the hotel owner if there were any fishing poles... and started to train Maddie.
Super happy.
All throughout Germany, we saw these grill sets they sell in the grocery stores, and wanted a chance to use them. Finally we seized the moment! We bought "American marshmallows" and went to town.
LOVED this boat.
He caught some fish!!!
One of my favorite pictures for the trip!
Or maybe this one?
Emi turned into quite a little jumper!!! Whoo hooo!!!
Some trampoline love.
A view of the mountain we climbed (not with our feet, sadly, but with the tram!).A very very relaxing day in bad r. We don't want to leave.
