Current Mood: enthralled

Today’s pictures are from the second stop at Lake of  Konstance:  Reichenau Island. Primarily owned by Benedictine Monks, it also served for a time as a Bishop’s retirement.  We visited the Reichenau Museum which had a lot of interesting every day items for farming and displays of stuffed animals.

The Benedictines are famous for their illuminated manuscripts and for their wine. For lunch I tried a white wine from the island and a fish from Lake of Konstance. Very enjoyable. The two pictures of the dolls are from the restaurant but we’re seeing them everywhere for sale. I think a doll collector would be in heaven visiting this area.

The picture of the walkway stones I took by accident but decided to include it because everywhere we go the sidewalks and streets are paved this way.
