The Bastei in Germany 10-01-11

We went to the Bastei, a spectacular rock formation above the Elbe River and valley. The rocks reach a height of 305 meters above sea level and were formed by water erosion over a million years ago. It is a popular climbing spot in Germany.  It was truly breathtaking!
 


There are actually people up on top!


Bob decided to give it a try. You know how he loves climbing!



And Lonnie followed, making it all the way to the top! You know how much she loves heights!



Here is the gorgeous Elbe River and valley below.


We made it to safety and enjoyed every minute of this amazing adventure!
