Neuschwanstein ( the disney castle is based off of)

Today we went to  Neuschwanstein, To get there we had to drive 25 minutes. In those twenty-five minutes we went from Austria to Germany. When we got in the area of the castle we drove to the ticket booth, and of course there was a huge line. We were about to decide to come back later,  when my dad had an idea that my mom waits in the line and we go park the car. So we headed back in the car and drove to a car park it was ten dollars. After we walked to the ticket booth and waited with our mom, while my brother and dad were going to go look around. When they came back, the line was making progress also my dad had pretzels in his backpack. So all the kids got a big pretzel while the parents got a coffee. We waited a good amount of time it was 12:50 and we were waiting for a English tour. Finally, we were at the front, we paid and got our tickets for the 1:40 English tour and we headed to the entrance to walk up to the castle. 

We walked and walked. Our idea was we ate lunch up close to the castle and then we explored while waiting for our tour. When we got to a rest stop, we ate our lunch and took pictures of the beautiful waterfall  below the castle. After,we went to the bathroom and headed up the mountain to the castle. The castle shined in the sun, it felt magical and thrilling. The castle was whitish blueish. It was now 1:35 so we went and walked by the castle to the famous river called Marien River. It was beautiful we got fabulous pictures of it on the bridge. Soon  it was time for our tour so we walked back to the castle and waited five minutes for the tour.

Our tour was wonderful we had a girl tour guide, she was amazing. She told us about the Kings library, chamber, hall, and where the servants slept. Also the kitchen was really big, it had lots of different pots and pans, utensils, and stoves. She also told us about the history of the paintings that were all over the castle, and how the King had the first telephone that called his parents and the post office. How  cool is that! At the end of our tour we went to the bathroom and we left to go walk to the car. On our way our dad surprised us with gummy bears. So we ate while walking to our car. When we got by the car park my brother saw a lake to put his feet in, so my brother and I put our feet in the water and saw cool rocks. It was 4:30 so we left.Originally we were going to go back to the castle and have a night walk, but we were all tired so we went to the information center and declined. After we went to the grocery store to get chocolate, fruits, and a loaf of bread and then headed home. Today was a excellent day because when I was little I played in the play Cinderella and when I went to the disney castle it made me remember! See you next time....
