With my new SBD funded debit card in hand we are now deep inside Germany's Black Forest region relaxing and enjoying the fruitage of over a year of blogging.
Why The Black Forest Area?
- My experience tells me to stay away from beach areas in August
- The Black Forest is clean, cool and very pleasing to the eye.
- We wanted an active vacation and this area offers hiking, cyling and swimming.
Our First Stop.....Baiersbronn
This cute little village is perfect for us because using this as a base we'll be able to visit a few other interesting places that lay in this region.
Our hotel room has a full length balcony which features this great view. We couldn't be more pleased!
This was my first Steemcation purchase using my SBD loaded debit card. It was followed by three meals including coffee and dessert! What a feeling!
Here Are a Few More Shots of The Area. The Real Exploring Starts Today
This is another hotel which is a short walk from us. It is set in some exquisite gardens!
That sky bodes well for an exciting day today!
This morning @lellabird60 and I enjoyed a jog through the wonderful paths that wind through this valley and after a nice breakfast we will be heading off to the town of Calw. I'll report back to you soon.
What About You?
- Have you ever visited the Black Forest?
- Would you like to?
- Do you enjoy activity based vacations?
I hope that you enjoyed this introduction to my Steemcation!
Until next time,
