11 October 2021 Passau Germany

 


Back in 2016 Leslie and I were here in Passau Germany,  It was for only one half a day and we knew this was not enough.  So we are back and what a great place.  It is the location where three rivers meet together, the Danube the Inn and the Ill all meet here.  We are staying at the right at the confluence and our room looks out over the Inn river.  


We followed google on tiny streets that seemed to be alleys, but it got us here!


Our Hotel at the end of this "street"


I parked here with several attempts to make it into the space


This is the tiny opening that I had to drive the car down to get to the parking.  I had an inch and a half of clearance on each side, but I made it with pout any damage


From our window!


Seating area in our room


Bedroom one


Bedroom two.  There shall be no overflow snoring noise keeping other travelers awake!


Yep, we are staying here


A cruise boat cruising by


How will I drink this tea?


Ta da!  Cup and pot all together


Pho for us both!  Perfect food to fortify us for a walk about


Straight from Hanoi


No detail too much for the folks in Passau


This guy had a removable handle for the door that he stored behind the shutter.  


This is the ceiling for the drug store


And the old style drawers at the Apothecary


I fyou look close there is a construction crane here with the base big enough for cars to drive through


I love the onion style domes


These silver doors were 12 feet high


A WW1 war memorial


Not a time traveler, she is a tour guide waiting for her tour to show up


 A few hardy roses are still blooming


Old style book store!  There is another room just like this through that door


Go to the light was good advice because through this alley was the Inn River and a walkway bathed in Autumn sun.


We have made it to the southern facing part of town


A riverfront walk


We had one of these butterflies come into the room 


A riot of color along the walk


no doubt a tax collocter tower


We saw so many cute dogs but this one took the cake, he was sooo soft



Our hotel from the river


The top four windows are ours


This is the car in that tiny parking space


This is the park at the confluence.  Time to head back for happy hour
