Der Bodensee




Otherwise known as Lake Constance.

This is the largest (I think) lake in Germany, located in the most

southwest part of the country, where it borders Switzerland and
Austria. Italy is down there, too, and France is just a bit northwest. All in all, it's close to a lot of other countries (within a couple hours, at most, I'd guess).


Jan's parents retired to Ueberlingen, one of the towns on the north side of the la
ke. They have a lovely apartment with great lake views:






























The town of Ueberlingen is lovely. It has a great promenade/boardwalk along the lake with many restaurants with outdoor seating.




















This was our favorite spot. Apparently Jan's parents also like this place; too bad we didn't get to enjoy it with them.
