I was here in 1960 and again with Fellette some 17? Years ago. Much has changed, or is it my memory?
A quick tour of Passau...
On the convergence of three rivers in Germany: Danube, Inn and Ilz. The Inn puts more water into the system than the Danube, so the resulting merged river should have been called the Inn. However, isn't the Danube a more pleasant name for a river than Inn? Let them be happy with the Inn in Innsbruck some miles up stream.
An artsy street, once the Jewish Quarter, where only Jews could and had to live. For countries with so may churches and supposedly Christian, they sure had their time in history getting rid of the Jews in so many ways. Sad.
A treasure in itself in the cathedral in the town.
Just a gem of a building with horrendous maintenance costs
An orphanage, founded 200 years ago.
What a treasure in itself.
Those are high water marks. The one second from the top was in 2013!!!
Just another old building that Doug loves.
New and old paving stones. Not much changes in some places.
Fellette and I are attracted to gardens like a fly to honey.
Of course, we are in Bavaria where cuckoo clocks abound. I did here a real cuckoo once in Bavaria in 1960. It sounds just like a clock!
Moe having her hair done, happy as a clam. The hairstylist was also her room steward.
