A family European trip - to meet the small and white, clean and bright, Garmisch, Germany

Remember the lyric lines of "Edelweiss" from the musical "The Sound of Music" - "Small and bright, clean and white. You look happy to meet me. Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow...". That's Edelweiss (little white snow flowers found in the Alps mountain) with Lavender in the photo 1. Garmisch is a very tranquil area of Germany on the Alps mountain range.

Everything so neat and organized, typical of the German.

這個我們下榻的小鎮叫Fussen(富森),是在德國一個名叫Garmisch-Partenkiren的地方。那裏的房屋除了很美之外,空氣也很清新,住的地方沒有空調,因為七月也只是十七、八度左右(晚上更冷),就算日照很長,店鋪很早便關門,例如超市是六時半,我們六時半走入一間可能是coffee shop之類的食店,侍應也能禮貌地說她們七時關門,只可賣蛋糕或湯。整個小鎮很寧靜,我們在街上吵了一點,住二樓的人便探頭出來看個究竟,真不好意思。

Thanks Nikki for the supplementary note. They can't work over 7-8pm. The boss will ask the staff to leave. Otherwise, they will be sued.

i really love this kind of calm city, but i can't sleep at 8pm, so the sin country Thailand is more suitable for me, and i praise that Thailand shall continue to hv 'such quality' politicians as seen for the next one hundred years, so we all enjoy the benefits from an undeveloped country ..

Yes, if those leaders know how to buy the hearts of the innocent, it's easy to take control.
