Our next stop was the cutest little German town on part of the famous romantic road. Oh how we love Bavaria. I can't begin to tell you how much we loved this place and Bacharach, the previous town we were in. Rothenburg ob der Tauber is Germany's best preserved medieval walled town. We stayed at another cute little hotel that we found in Rick Steves guidebook. We arrived by train and because of time, took a taxi to our hotel. Then we quickly checked in and got our bums over to Market Square to meet for the fun and odd Night Watchman's Tour. The tour was enjoyable and gave us a little history on Rothenburg. We also spent time here shopping at the famous Christmas shops, doing Rick's self-guided walk from our guide book, checking out St. Jakob's Church, eating lots, enjoying all the cute shops, and my favorite thing was walking the town wall! So neat!
I love everything about this place! So, so, so, cute!
I am so thankful this Gma of mine decided to join us for some of the trip. I love traveling with her!
Our cute hotel, Kreuzerhof Hotel, with AWESOME owners! Breakfast here was so yummy!
European streets get me every single time
Walking part of the town wall
Love this dude
View from atop the wall fortifications
This is how the town was, perfect
I had been warned in my guidebook not to eat this yummy LOOKING treat that is sold all over this town. I forgot and tried one...NASTY! It was a wannabe shortbread with no flavor and rock hard. Sorry Schneeball.
Gorgeous wood-carved Altar of the Holy Blood by Tilman Riemenschneider. It was carved between 1499 and 1505!
Of course we did!
The best hot chocolate ever is found in Germany!
