Aw, he had his moments.

Ol' Ludwig-II seems to have been the protypical rich gonzo mofo.
He may have aspired to become a queen, but he sure loved a good castle.
He had three, I visited two.

Hi Trip,
Thanks for the pics. I've visited a couple times. Did a little fishing in
the area, but at that time of my life was more involved in running, golfing
and skiing, because fishing rules were kinda restrictive.
BestWishes,
