Day 1



 FINALLY,  we are at Toronto airport. Check in went very smoothly for which we thank God and for your prayers. 

   Howard Horst was our driver with Country Mile. We all met at Chervin, had very good travel, and arrived at Toronto airport with 4 hours to spare. 

  Almost everything is done electronically now. Security check went well, and we have time to relax before we board for Montreal.

A couple hour drive to Oberammergau, Germany to experience the PassionPlay that is performed every 10 years, but was postponed for 2 years because of COVID-19.  This is a beautiful village and only residents of the village can play in this.  The open air theater seats approximately 5,000 people. The play is a total of 5 hours. 2 1/2 hours then a 3 hour break, and another 2 1/2 hours.                                   View from my bedroom balcony the morning we left.

Day 17, Sept. 12

Leaving Oberammergau, Germany for Munich airport and then back home for most of the group.  Saying good bye is always hard to do. This was an amazing trip. God blessed us with wonderful weather, good health, safety as we travelled many miles. A special blessing was the wonderful fellowship and friendships that were formed during this time.  Our drivers, Marcel and Andre were both very careful and qualified. Andre fit right in with our group, had a good sense of humor,  but was very helpful and kind.    Our tour leader/ guide, Ayold Fanoy, was knowledgeable,  patient,  friendly,  had a sense of humor and all around best leader. We really learned a lot about our Anabaptist history, plus other points of interest. God truly blessed us with a wonderful trip.

It was here in front of the gold roof, that Jakob Hutter, the leader of the Hutterites, was burned at the stake in 1536. Free morning in Innsbruck to enjoy this beautiful city, and have apple strudel and coffee outside while listening to the band playing beautiful music. Getting ready to go into the Silver mine in Schwaz, Austria. This was the largest silver mine from the middle ages.  Our group at the silver mine. Travel on to Rattenburg, a small fortified town on the Inn River. Anabaptist were also tortured and martyred in this area. Mostly Hutterites. Walked up to the fortress up on the hill overlooking the Inn River and valley. A delicious wiener schnitzel meal that evening.
