Schwarzwald - Germany

View of the Schwarzwald from a mountain meadow

Last weekend we did a bit of traveling with some friends. We took a trip to Alsace in France, as well as the Schwarzwald (Black Forest) in Germany. One of the highlights of the trip was a stop along the Schwarzwaldhochstrasse drive for a short walk along the edge of the forest.

Although the weather was a bit overcast and slightly rainy it made for some impressive pictures. I have to admit, we did stop for a piece of black forest cake. And it was wonderful. Definately worth a drive if you have some time and are looking for a good place to do some sightseeing.

There must have been a British car club out on the road during our drive as well. We saw well over 100 Jaguars running down the road, all with little signs on the front with a British and French flag. The cars seemed to range in age from about the 1930's to the most modern models. It was neat sight to see.
