Holiday in Germany - May-June 2003

Back to Holidays

Alun and Janette flew out to Frankfurt/Hahn on 27 May 2003, hired a car locally, and stayed for a week in Walldürn, in Baden-Württemburg, South West Germany, for the "Flower and Light Festival", which was on for five days in the town.

The holiday was put together by Janette on the Internet, which in itself was quite scary - we set off clutching a pile of e-mails with booking references on, no tickets to cuddle and no tour rep to look after us! Anyway, somehow it all happened, and the results appear below - click on a link to see the photos.

And they're off!
