'wilkommen' to leavenworth...

Greetings from Leavenworth, Washington...a beautiful Bavarian village in the Cascade Mountains.


We are on a short roadtrip...and decided this was the perfect place to spend the night.  Though the town only has a population of about 2000...more than two million visitors flock here every year.  I know why!

More later...

  2. Oh my goodness! Leavenworth, WA is on my list of 101 things to do in 1001 days. I so want to go there. I read about it in a fictional book, and I've heard it's a great place to "holiday". Can't wait for your next post.

  16. How quaint. I met a lady who is from Leavenworth a year ago. I told her that when I get out to the PAC-NW to visit my friend from Spokane area, that I would stop and visit her....Thank you for the pictures because I will absolutely make a point to stop and see her.
    Looking forward to more pictures and a great read from you.
    God Bless.

  18. We always enjoy Leavenworth. It used to be a yearly destination for a bike ride over the May long weekend. A perfect little get away for you to start off the summer.
