Day 26: One Two Three Four Five Six Seven. Seven. Seven Swimming Pools

Stefan took today off from work, and Gunter took a half day. Once he returned in the afternoon, all five of us headed to Milano Island in nearby Lindau. The island is on the Bodensee, a large lake which borders Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Its a little like Mackinac island, but with less fudge and more ice cream. After walking around the cove to get a better look at the lake before heading into the town.

If you included Gunter's finger, all five of us made it into the photo

A nice little town

The ice cream was outstanding

After getting ice cream we returned to the car and headed back to their home. On the way we stopped at several dealerships to check out several Mercedes-Benz and Porsche products...they were quite nice, but a little out of my price range.

Later that evening we met up with their friend Sieglinde to take a trip up the mountain on the cable car. The view was great and the food was as well. It started thunder-storming as we returned down the mountain, which offered a pretty neat light show as well. We were also fortunate enough to make it back in time for Jenny to catch Grey's Anatomy which was strangely filled with Christmas music.

Not a bad place for a meal
