HDYGG in Wolfratshausen - A town in Bavaria, Germany

I've traveled a fair few miles in July, from Dubai to South Africa to Dubai and the UK and a trip to Germany to visit my South African friends who moved there earlier this year.

Wolfrathausen is a town with just under 20,000 inhabitants and is 19 miles South West of Munich. 

 It's summer in the Northern Hemisphere so the town is in full bloom, with over flowing window boxes, flowers beds and gardens, it would appear though that from my photos I focused more on the highly decorated houses and building and green open spaces.























Of course there were the mandatory hydrangeas at the local garden centre.

Not so friendly signs warning you about the cat in this garden which translates as Battle Cat.

Plenty of information boards on the local area.

Yellow post boxes which took me a while to work out weren't dog poo boxes.

And random cigarette machines which require you to swipe your German ID to prevent underage sales.

    Nice to see so much green. I like all the pastel buildings with the wood, very picturesque. I had to laugh at the thought of someone mistaking a letterbox for a dog poo box!! Well, it wouldn't be funny if you'd just posted a letter of course...

    The town looks picture postcard lovely...but couldn't help laughing at the thought of the battle cat guarding one of its homes!
