Rothenburg ob der Tauber

 

A very quaint little village here in Germany, complete with a City Wall, Towers, Cobble Stones and many Watchtowers.   The weather was a little on the cool side, but we buttoned up and toured like pros.

 
Walking around the village up on the city wall was very beautiful.  Plenty of space for the kids to run, and get some great pictures. 














The famous "Schneeball" which is basically pie crust that has been rolled into strips, then formed into a delicate ball and sprinkled with your choice of Cinnamon and Sugar, nuts, or chocolate.

Speyer

 Grandma Irene came for 3 weeks, and while she was here we made a few trips to see some of the things in our area.  One of the first places was a museum in Speyer, which is about 45 minutes from us.  It had a very interesting collection of old cars, trains, airplanes, and boats.  We also watched an IMAX movie that was on a round screen.

Lego Mania

2 years ago for Christmas we got the boys a first Lego set.

It came in a little blue tub. Since then we have been slowly acumulating more and more.....

Birthdays.

Christmas.

Extra Money from Grandma and Grandpa.

They graduated from that little blue container to about 4 Rubbermade containers.

WOW

Can you say tooooo many Legos? I know they can't.

And here they are in PJs making new creations.

It's that time of year again....

where people dress funny, walk in the streets and make merry. This is our little towns parade, and yes, we were walking right along with everyone else. Just like we belong, maybe we do...
