Today was our last day in Europe and we took it easy. We slept in and relaxed. We also packed up. We were invited to a neighbors' house - Clemens and Astrid - for afternoon tea. Their property is just across the street from the farm and they have a great view of the nearby lakes and mountains. After, we went into Eggstatt for dinner. There was a local festival going on - called Eggstatt Dorffest 2007. There were many bands and lots of food - both Bavarian and non-Bavarian (Italian). The girls rode horses and played games (like tug-o-war) and we had a great time.
In one of the pictures you'll see a Maypole. Most towns have one. They are made by cutting down a pine tree from the forest and then decorating it with symbols and pictures of what the people from that town/village do for a livelihood.
