donaueschingen & konstanz

 the weather forcast changed constantly, so we did not wake up in a white world and there was no rain or snow; it was dry and there would be snow in the afternoon.
so we took off early and went to the black forest (schwarz wald), and our first stop after some windy high roads, was in donaueschingen, the place where the danube is born.

 

we had our coffee in a typical german bierstube (fürstenberg) and looked at the donau quelle.

 

then we went down to konstanz on the bodensee, where we had a lot of time to look around the town, the shopping centre and had a ride with the bus (in the snow) which are free during our stay, because our hotel centro gave us tickets.

and ... we walked shortly into kreutzlingen (switzerland), easy because the border is just 50m from our hotel and open now, so gönül reentered switzerland after sooo many years, and we remembered other times when it was not so easy and very expensive for coşkun to do this!

 

and we ate nice fishes at fisch & fröhlig.
