Browsing Pinterest For Cool Sights – Destination Three: Neuschwanstein Castle (Germany)

Location: Schwangau, Germany

I actually stumbled across this castle on Google first and thought it looked like something from a fairytale. As you know if you’ve been following this blog, I went through a two year obsession with Rammstein, which in turn led to a fascination with their homeland and its many interesting travel destinations. I’m sure this is not the last post you’ll see about something cool/breathtaking in Deutschland.

Browsing Pinterest For Cool Sights – Destination Two: Caerphilly Castle (Wales)

Or, more accurately, the dragons that don the shoreline of one of the surrounding artificial lakes.

Location: Caerphilly, Wales, United Kingdom

The castle was constructed by Gilbert de Clare in the 13th century and is an amazing sight in its own right…

But what caught my attention on Pinterest were the dragons. They started with one that breathes smoke.

A second dragon was added, along with a nest holding eggs. Then, two babies “hatched,” and they are adorable.
