Rothenburg, the right one this time

Bill rented a car this weekend so we could travel around a little. Since we never made it to the correct Rothenburg last year, we decided to try for it again. We made it!

This town really is a picturesque town. And surprisingly, there weren't too many tourists today. And more German visitors than I expected. We walked around, ate lunch, walked some more, took pictures, and took a nap in the sun.

In the late afternoon we went for a 30 min buggy ride throughout the city. It was supposed to be bi-lingual, but after the buggy driver heard me speaking both English and German to my neighbor's he said "You can probably translate better than I can", and from then on, I was the English part of the program. I should have asked for my buggy fee back! :) It was really a lot of fun though. I was having a really good conversation with one of the German ladies and it was fun being the center of attention because I knew German.

A funny truism I said to Bill this afternoon: "The best German ice cream is Italian." So true!
