This is a general map of our road trip itinerary. Each stop is a city where we will be staying overnight at least 1 day. From there we will travel to other spots outside the city (Bern, Switzerland; Hallstatt, Austria; and towns in Germany t.b.d.)
As I promised before, I'll share a more detailed itinerary once we finalize it a little more. There are just so many places we want to go and see, and it seems impossible to imagine fitting it all in and relaxing at the same time! Rick Steves, how do you do it?
If you have favorite places you've been, we'd love to hear about them and of course, any safe driving and travel tips are super helpful!

Looks like a fun road trip. Don't blink, or you'll miss Liechtenstein!

I was just noticing that your route will go through or near Bern, Switzerland. That's cool. It's where Einstein developed his theory of relativity. Bern has a famous old town, with a clock tower (the Zytglogge, or "time bell") just a short distance away from Einstein's home at Kramgasse 49, which I hear is open to the public and houses an Einstein museum. Any pictures of the area or souvenirs from the museum would be quite a treat.
ReplyDeleteWe wanted to tour Einstein's house, but it looks it sustained water damage and is closed until they can get it repaired. We are looking forward to going to the museums and touring Bern, it looks like a cool town. We'll be visiting Bern when we're staying in Interlaken. Here's a link to Einstein's house webpage if you're interested: http://www.einstein-bern.ch/index.php?lang=en.
DeleteThanks, Phil. Glad to hear you were already thinking about Einstein's house. I also read that it was closed due to water damage, but it might be open again by the time you guys get there. In any case, it looks like an interesting old city center to visit, especially the clock tower. I think Einstein's house is just a short distance from the tower. E = mc^2.
