Dec 2009 - Trip to Dresden, Bastei, and Seiffen

We met up with Scott and Sherrie in Dresden for a few days.

It was really cold, but not too cold to eat.

At the Zwinger Hof Museum in Dresden.

The next day we drove to Seiffen, but on the way stopped off at a place called the Bastei, with some interesting rock formations, overlooking the Elbe river.


The road to Seiffen took us through the country-side, right along the border with the Czech Republic. Nash couldn't resist the temptation to jump out of the car and run across the border, in order to claim that he was the first one in the family to go to the Czech Republic.

Seiffen is a small town, with small shops selling all sorts of wooden Christmas decorations, including Christmas Pyramids.
