We're on a boat. And going home the next day.

Early on Sunday morning, even before breakfast, we headed down to the lake where they guys had arranged that we take out a boat for two hours.

At 8am, the water was all ours aside from a few boats here and there. We went full speed ahead as we tried to find George Clooney's villa south of where we were.

Here we are at the dock getting the boat. The guys basically said "here's how to go forward, here's a button not to press," and that was it.

And we're off!

Woo hoo!

Here's that villa we visited the day before:

Super calm waters :-)

All the boys got a chance to drive while the ladies enjoyed the ride. And held on. I eventually sat down on the bottom of the boat in the middle so I would not literally rock the boat.

Look how happy he is! And so early in the morning, too!

Captain Red Beard.

Sadly after we returned to the dock, two of our six had to depart back to Germany, so the four of us remaining headed back to the B&B for a hard-earned breakfast:

There were even hard-boiled eggs today! Yum.

After this, the food coma set in, and we retreated to our newly refreshed rooms for some primo napping.

In the afternoon we emerged craving an activity and gelato so we headed over to a nearby town where there was supposed to be a good gelato place. On our way we even explored some beach (this was before we realized this probably wasn't a public beach...)

Oh yum.... this was a tiramisu that I had:

So sad we had to leave! For a late dinner we went back to the same place we ate at two nights before, and it was just as delicious, and with better views sitting outside:

The next day, we had our last yummy breakfast before heading out of town. We stopped the next town over at this enormous grocery store to stock up on anything and everything that looked delicious. Hubby and I loaded up on all these delectable delights:

Soon into the drive, it started drizzling and then raining which wasn't pleasant, but by the time we made it to the mountain pass of the day, Splügen Pass, it lightened up.

It was super high that we literally drove through the clouds.

I even managed to get a video of us going down the pass. Unfortunately the file is too big to include here, so if you're interested in seeing it, let me know and I can try emailing it/Google doc-ing it to you. It was pretty good. To get an idea, here are some un-rainy shots courtesy of Google images.

Yay!

After driving back through Switzerland, Lichtenstein, and Austria for too long, We finally made it back to Germany. When we stopped for gas, I got this little gem to drink in the car, because there are no open container laws in the land:

And yes, it was delicious. Later that night we made it home and because we love Italian food so much, made a late-night frozen pizza. Not completely as good as what we had been eating over the weekend, but after a long day of driving it definitely hit the spot.
