We spent a pleasant morning looking at the Cuckoo clock shops in Triberg. 

After much deliberating we managed to choose one that would grace our home. 

Maybe a bit too big!

Too big aswell.

The deal breakers!

Mark shaking on the deal.

As it weighs 11km we thought it best to have it delivered, rather than trying to bring it on the plane. The other bonus is that there is a service agent in Mont Albert, if we ever need to get it serviced or have warranty work carried out. How amazing is that!
So after a stroll around town we headed 3km up the road to have a look at the Worlds largest cuckoo clock. Luckily we managed to arrive on the hour and watch the 20 time pieces do their thing. 

We had a quick look at their clocks, but we were happy with our choice. From here we drove through some lovely countryside, quaint villages and colourful forests (it is autumn). 

Most villages we drove through had their timber mills.

We found a spot in the free motorhome parking area in a quiet street of Oberstrot. 

There are many walking trails ftom here. We decided to walk the 3km into Gernsbach which has some pretty buildings in its old quarter. 

Amazing where they have cigerette dispensers...this one is in a quiet suburban street!

Some one enjoyed decorating their front yard. 

By the time we made it back to Bluey we were ready for our BBQ pork chops and a cold drink (or two).
