The week after Jay got home, we had a spouses retreat scheduled down in Garmisch. He got to come with us! So while I was in the sessions and Hayden was hanging out with the other kids, Jay got to relax and even get a massage! He and Hayden spent one of the morning sessions together, which was fun for everyone. Since we had so much free time built into our schedule, we got to do a few things I'd been wanting to do for awhile.
Our first stop on Friday was Munich for lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe. The place was nearly empty, so the kids got to play and have balloons and eat fun food. We had a nice relaxing lunch before getting back on the road to Garmisch. An hour later we were checking into our hotel and enjoying another weekend down in the Alps. Traveling is always more fun with friends, and Amber and the kids and Mandie made the road trip down with us. We went to our evening session and were done and enjoying some time together by 930.
Saturday morning we had our sessions and then finished up in time for lunch. We headed to the Linderhof palace to see the gardens, which weren't really in bloom yet but we did get to see the fountain! I had been in December 2007 but it looks so much different in the winter! We bummed around and enjoyed the beautiful weather before heading back for dinner. We tried to go to the pool but Hayden was not too pumped about it. He spent most of the time wrapped up in a towel sitting with me, but he did test the waters a bit. Hopefully some more pool time this summer will clear that anxiety right up!
We had a great time, as we always do down in Garmisch, and learned a few things as well. We could not have asked for better weather, or better traveling buddies!
