What can you say about the trip of a lifetime? On our 25th anniversary in 2003, we flew to Munich, Germany and spent a week between Munich and the Garmish area. Then, we drove down to Ortesi, Italy to start the Edelweiss motorcycle tour. It was 5 full days of riding the Dolomite Alps. It is an area that belonged to Germany, Austria and Italy in the past, so the flavor of the other cultures comes through everywhere. In fact, each town in that area has 3 names (in each language) to reflect the different cultures. The foods were extraordinary and the views from every angle were awesome. I took over 3000 pictures on that trip and still love to view them all to bring back the memories. Our last week of the trip was in Austria, seeing Innsbruck & Salzburg. There is alot of history over there. Then, we flew back out of Munich. We wish we had spent more time there (like months!), because we will never be able to afford to go again. We will forever remember the experience, and we're so glad we spent the money. You can't take it with you!
