This is our group visiting the "Schneekirche" in Mitterfirmiansreut
It was made totally of ice and snow. It was created in honor of the 100th anniversary of the original Schneekirche in 1912. That one was built in protest because the community wanted a church of their own and had to travel too far to attend services in another town. They built one of their own in the way they could...totally from what they had most of!
The church was very pretty in the mist. |

We ate at a hotel-restaurant call the Almberg
On the way back, our half of the group stopped in a small town with a ski lift and some small slopes called Herzogsreut. I got some great shots showing the magnatude of the trees in the Bavarian Forest. It was very dense too! The snow was incredibly deep.
A red sled was brought out of the trunk for trial on the perfect sledding hill. The weather was very nice (although a bit foggy) as it was only around freezing or slightly below.
