Bad Tölz


Wikipedia says:
Bad Tölz is known for its spas, historic medieval town, and spectacular views of the alps. On the western bank of the Isar River lies the Kurverwaltung, or modern spa, whose iodine-rich waters are known for their soothing and healing powers. Another major attraction is Stadtpfarrkirche, a church built in 1466, which is an excellent example of German late-Gothic architecture.

We spent the day driving around and then sled riding. It was sunny and bright and the kids needed to get out. We found a nice hill...

It seems they are all over the place. Ski places are also everywhere.

We are testing the cold weather gear for skiing in late February in Austria.


The boys seemed more interested in playing "snow football" than sledding.
Julia took to the hill and was fast.

Even though Brian didn't seem to go fast or enjoy the trip too much, he always smiles.

Notice all of the old-style wooden sleds. They are everywhere including the city where people pull them with groceries, various supplies, or children as they walk on the sidewalks.

It was a sunny, blue day in Southern Germany. Nice.
