So it's been a nice couple of days here in Germany. The first day I was here, I was able to see the town. Lorraine calls it the Manitou Springs of Germany. It's definitely a tourist town and there are always people stopping and looking at our house because it's connected to a round castle-like tower. It's been a bit chilly here. They said it was nice the days before I came but now it's always overcast.
This is wine country. Mosel wine is world renowned because the weather here and the terrain is just right for growing perfect grapes. Even the rocks in the ground contribute to the grapes.
We went swimming yesterday in the local swimming pool. Some other attractions from that day included seeing a Roman ruin and some naked people when we accidentally went into an all nude sauna...no big deal...just a bit disturbing. :)
Today we are taking a ferry ride on the Mosel today. Like I said, it's a bit chilly, but I'll live. I'll try to post more pictures soon. It's hard when you have a laptop with a 20 minute battery and have to walk to a wifi hotspot. It's not that bad though. Well talk to you all soon, and today is Robert's birthday so happy 17th Robert!
