Berlin - Bavaria - Paris - Bastogne - Christmas Markets -- our German vacation was so full of spectacular sites, that I just would not be able to fit it all in one blog! Therefore, I will write this in sections, with each major segment of our trip having it's own post. This is segment 4: War and Peace! We have been planning this vacation for years! Well, sort of.

I love to travel! Love to "see the sights!" I decided to start this travel blog to add some story to our trips. As it is now, I upload the pictures to some site, and that's about it. This blog will allow us to tell the story that goes with the pictures (and help remind me of any details I forget down the road ;)). I will try my hardest to add new trips to this blog in a timely manner! If you find that I post something that happened ages ago, it's probably that I forgot to post about it and just randomly came across the pictures! Hope you enjoy! ... full info

Dom St. Peter

I have a thing for organ pipes!

The "Truckstop"

Awesome restaurant Lisa and Mike took us too! Indoor/Outdoor seating and what a view!

At the Truckstop

Schnitzel with white asparagus and hollandaise....or as I like to to call it - heaven! Omg....it was insanely amazing!

Dudeldorf Christmas Market

Are these not the coolest thing ever? Handmade by the guy who sells them. The bottom-right one is now ours! :)

Dudeldorf Christmas Market

Dampfnudel is a steamed dough ball with a vanilla sauce on top, and we added wine cherries. Very good!

Dudeldorf by Day

These are the original arched gates to the town. When Patton came through with his tanks in WWII, they were too wide for the narrow arches, so the tanks cut grooves in the sides of the stone where they scraped through.

Dudeldorf by Day

See the grooves?

Beautiful!
What an amazing trip and wonderful History lesson. I would be overjoyed to be walking thru there where so much history took place. I would probably still be pinching myself to see if it was real, so I can understand why the last entry of the blog took a while to write. The church was absolutely beautiful, as well as the Advent calendar building. That would be so cool to watch the performances there every night. Thanks for sharing your adventure! :)
