Leavenworth WA July 2017

   One of the reasons we stayed at Thousand Trails Cracent Bar Resort was to visit Leavenworth village.

 Leavenworth is a Bavarian village in the Cascade mountains. There are many Alpine style buildings. Along the streets are many restaurants serving German foods and beers.

Nutcracker Museum with thousands of Nutcrackers. Town center where arts and craft shows are held.

 We ate at one of the many dog friendly restaurants since we had Hannah with us. The town is dog friendly.

 

Linda and Hannah cooling off

The Wenctchee River flows through and around the city. There is a great fish hatchery just outside of town.

 The flowers are beautiful.

There are many specialty gift shops.

There are a few wineries in the area, along with a few breweries.  Winter brings the skiers  It's a fun stop. We passed many orchards along the way.
     While at the TT RV park we met a couple from Melbourne about 20 miles from where we live. Talk about a small world.  This happens a number of times.
