Kaiserslautern, Germany (Dino Park)

We took the kids for a "Family Fun Day" at the Gartenschau in Kaiserslautern, Germany, today.  The weather was perfect for being outside and we had a blast!

Dachau and Berchtesgaden, Germany (Eagle's Nest)

We were very (lucky) and excited to visit the Eagle's Nest while in Berchtesgaden!

Dachau and Berchtesgaden, Germany (Berchtesgaden)

After our visit at the Dachau Concentration Camp, we hopped back into the car and headed for Berchtesgaden, Germany.  I really love this entire region of Germany. To say it is beautiful is a complete understatement!

Dachau and Berchtesgaden, Germany (Dachau)

This past October we took a weekend trip and went to the Bavarian region of Germany.  Two things we really wanted to see were the Dachau Concentration Camp and Hitler's Eagle's Nest.

We debated on whether to take the kids to see Dachau. However, they behaved with respect and although they asked questions (and we answered truthfully) they didn't seem to comprehend what happened here and why. I'm not sure I will ever comprehend it. 

Never Forget

Trier, Germany (Elephant Parade)

We went to Trier, Germany to see the Elephant Parade today!

We have been to Trier before to see Porta Nigra, but this time we had the Roman Baths and some elephants on our radar...
