Day Trip to St. Blasien, Germany

St. Blasien is a beautiful town. The "Dom" or cathedral is the Dom-inate feature in this small village. Today this is a functioning Catholic church and a Jesuit high school and boarding school for German kids. It used to be a monastery years ago.

This was a really cool building - now a chothing store. This is the Black Forest style.


View from the High Black Forest region. You can see the Swiss Alps in the distance. Amazing. That column of white cloud in the distance (just right of center) is a cooling vapors from our nearest nuclear power plant miles away from here. That's impressive too.
