Norman Bates: Alive and Well... in Bavaria


Interesting street sign in Oberammergau, in Bavaria. First of all, "Ferien" means vacation. And "Wohnung" means apartment. So, as you can guess, in this little tourist village the sign is telling you there is an apartment nearby for rent. So far, so good.
It's the next line that's a bit discomforting. I guess if you're an optimist, you'd say that this is a killer place to stay. If you're a bit more easily frightened, you might wonder if Norman Bates has pulled up stakes and is now renting rooms to unwitting travelers in southern Germany...
