Fuessen and the Tank Mechanic School

After giving Mr D a bad time about not remembering anything from 54 years ago, we came into Fuessen and he directed me perfectly to the place he went to school for tank mechanics. I left Mr & Mrs D in a McDonalds parking lot and took some pictures. It's now used by the German military. On the way, he even pointed out a place he had had ice cream with dessert wine poured on top. Yuck!

Fuessen is right at the Austrian border. Apparently Mr D and a GI friend crashed a wedding across the border. The only problem was that they weren't authorized to be in Austria. The local police held them until someone arrived to retrieve them. Mr D remembers only that he was in civilian clothes and they didn't get into as much trouble as he was expecting.

BTW, Fuessen was busy and very crowded. I'm glad we stayed in Reutte. It was much more laid back and just plain nice. It was surrounded by mountains. It was the Hotel Das Beck http://www.hotel-das-beck.at/index_so.e.htm I think we were treated as well there as any place I've ever stayed.
