She Loves You: Munich

Munich was our last stop on our Grand Tour of Germany. We arrived in the morning from Augsburg and spent most of the day visiting the Van Treeck workshop that has been creating stained glass and mosaic masterpieces for many generations. It was another highlight of the trip to see this fantastic studio! Munich was a colorful and wonderful city, but we only had the one day there before we flew out in the evening to return to England.

Munich, I love you!

Colorful Architecture Abounds!
