Even though summer is winding down there’s still enough time to hit the road for a quick get-away! If the kids are back in school try a solo outing for the day or hold off for a family weekend…either way, go exploring…it’s a great way to have some fun and get inspired! I wanted to share some “road trip” fun and show off the sweet town of Frankenmuth, Michigan. Not only is it known for its year-round Christmas fun at the most gianormous holiday shop ever, but it’s quaint, Bavarian style architecture and picturesque views make it a “must see” if you ever find yourself in that neck of the woods! After working up an appetite strolling through the shop-lined streets, you won’t be disappointed with the restaurants serving up some family-style fare! Have a look at this lovely, Bavarian village…
and head on over to Frankenmuth!
a beautiful covered bridge that seems to transport you to a far away place!
where the scenery is fabulous…
inspiration is in just about everything…check out the color of the wood grain on the bridge–love it!
a paddle ride perhaps?
the Bavarian Inn Glockenspeil Tower showcases dancing figurines, chiming bells, and German & American hymns throughout the afternoon…
and with local music also filling the air…
you can really imagine you’re out of the states!
lovely details on flower lined streets…
lead to some wonderful eateries!
(did i mention there’s tons of shopping too?!)
inside awaits some of the best chicken ever!
