My mother and her husband drove to Holungen in Thuringia. The brother of her husband visited us in Schleswig Holstein over the holidays but they promised to drive him back to Thuringia after the holidays. My mother promised me that she would take some photos with her phone as Thuringia is quite beautiful too. I got the images now and want to put them in a gallery of this post here so that you can see them too. Hope you enjoy the photos. Continue reading Photos From Thuringia And Holungen
