In the spring of 2002, the company I worked for sent me to London to train some people in their office. I took a long weekend while I was there to fly to Munich to visit my cousin, Eric. He showed me all over the place it seemed. This is one of our side trips.
We took a train outside of Munich to Bavaria to a little village called Oberammergau. This is one of the most beautiful places I think I've ever seen....it was out of a storybook. This was only the first part of our trip that day...but I took a million pictures everywhere we went...so I have to break it up.
We got off the train here in this village and had a few hours before we had to catch our bus to our next stop. This is what it looked like when we walked into Oberammergau....
We sort of crashed a wedding......
We went into the local church....very beautiful....
No, its not Pinnochio....but its me and some wooden guy.... he looks a lot like he's made out of a big block of Velveeta though....doesn't he?
My cousin and I goofing off in the park.
Outside of the village....the countryside is beautiful too.....
If you are ever in Munich and need something to do for the day....definitely get on a train and go here. I'd love to spend the night here....it just seems so quaint and everyone was so friendly.
I didn't know it at the time, but the whole town puts on a passion play every 10 years. People come from all over to see.
To see more great pictures, go visit Candid Carrie to participate in the Friday Foto Fiesta Finish. Join the party!!!

I absolutely agree with you, it does look like it is out of a fairy tale! Magical.
