From Crafts to Treetops

The day started out gray and foggy.  We went to the park to check out emails and scores.  We have to go to a wi-fi area in town because we don't have wi-fi in our apartment.  Main street was closed and we had to detour.  There was a banner, but it was in German so we couldn't read it, but it said something about 29/9, so we knew it was today.  After finding a place to park we took off to see what it was all about.  A local craft fair was going on in the square.  Oh, what fun!  We saw woodworking, felt hats, yard art, woolen socks and even an organ grinder.








I bought some great little note cards from an artist that also did ceramics.



There was a vendor in a top hat with custom made dog products.  Who knew dogs wore lederhosen?




We saw some beautiful carved doors on the way back to the car.




The day's getting brighter already.
We set out for Scheidegg, home of the Skywalk Allgau.

They advertise, " you walk above the treetops", and in some places, we really did.




This was a great family place.  There was a neat playground area for kids.




Good news, there's a lift to get us up to the walkway.  The views at the top were spectacular even in the fog.




There were some tricky spots testing our balance.




We passed on the tube slide down.




The day might have started out gray, but it ended up fun.
