Constance
Helen's uncle Bill was packing up for departure to Melbourne with his wife Gisi by the time we managed to fly to Constance to see them. It was great that Bill was interested in coming for a flight over lake Constance, as the weather was amazing - a large high pressure system had moved in over the Swiss alps and looked set to stay for several days.
The airstrip at Constance is wonderful - a grass runway right in the centre of town. Highly recommended as a destination. Our flight around the lake would take us from Germany to Switzerland to Austria then back to Germany.
This is the Rhine flowing into the lake from the south;
Lindau, on the north east edge of the lake, has a beautiful old centre on a harbour on the lake. Good tip by Bill for a place to check out from the air!
