Konstanz, Germany

Konstanz is situated on Lake Constance (Der Bodensee in German). The Rhine river, which starts in the Swiss Alps, passes through Lake Constance and leaves it again, considerably larger, by flowing under a bridge connecting the two parts of the city. North of the river lies the larger part of the city with residential areas, industrial estates, and the University of Konstanz; while south of the river is the old town which houses the administrative centre and shopping facilities in addition to the Hochschule or the University of Applied Sciences. To the south, the old town borders onto the Swiss town of Kreuzlingen. - Wikipedia.org

So on Saturday, 10 of us took the train to Konstanz. What was supposed to be a 1 hour plus journey took longer than that due to a few glitches like getting off at the wrong stations and miscommunication or rather the lack of it...but anyway...it was nice. Konstanz is so alive compared to St Gallen.

This dog is HUGE.


Lake Constance. The photos don't really do it justice...Its a really big lake, almost like a sea.

F4? Hmmm....
