Enjoying another short vacation This time at the beautiful location On the Mosel village in Germany. Sitting on the rattan chair on the balcony I watch the clear blue water of the Mosel river In front of me is a green view of the hill Vine gardens everywhere. White swans swimming at the river Tourist and cargo boats passing by Beautiful landscapes surrounding me What shall I say! Life is good for me to see. From the balcony, I can see The Thurant castle on top of the hill On the picturesque villages of Alken. Today, I have climbed the very old castle overlooking the awesome scenery of the Mosel village. It was a breathtaking view from above. I had to leave my hubby sitting on a huge stone enjoying the view while I was exploring the Thurant castle and its garden. It was so dangerous for him to climb. Still, it was worthy for him to wait for me. The photo above is the view of Thurant castle I see every night for almost a week. Stunning, isn’t it? Thank you for reading.

@thelme55 that was probably a long climb. The beautiful view would have been worth it.

I love visiting castles, too. I have read that a few rooms in that castle in that photo are rented for tourists. I wonder how much it costs per night. Thank you. Happy Mother’s Day, too @LindaOHio.

@LindaOHio I think it is. I think the website has also an English language for the tourists.

@thelme55 I'll bet it's very expensive. Their website is in German; so I don't know how much it costs!!
