Current thoughts for Chugger & Designated Walker

Not finalized, but our thinking is to fly on Thursday to Frankfurt, then quickly take train to Nürnberg. Spend Friday night and Saturday night in Nürnberg, then train to München on Sunday. We would leave for home on the next Friday. Depending on flight and train schedules, we could leave a day earlier on Wednesday.

A more direct alternative would be to fly into München then train to Nürnberg. Again, scheduling and connections would change things.

Here's a nice video by Rick Steves on Frankfurt and Nürnberg. Skip to the 8:45 mark if you want to bypass Frankfurt.

I will likely fly to France and pick up the team there and fly to Munich to match your schedule.
