We have been in our new place almost month and have been slowly exploring the nearby area. The dogs and I have used our morning walks to help us explore. At the bottom of the hill we live near is a playground for kids in addition to some paths.
The dogs and I took advance of nice but hot summer day by exploring the town of Dinkelsbühl. Dinkelsbühl is a walled city along the Romantic Road which was a former Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire. It was about 2 hours from the house. As we explored we saw many sites that Dinkelsbühl had to offer. As the summer sun came out and warm things up, we had to cut our adventure short.
Over Memorial Day weekend, Mario and I took advance of crossing another country off our list. We traveled to Barcelona, Spain. Spain makes country # 16 for me! We arrived early evening and took the Aerobus into the city center and then walked about 15 mins to our hotel. Our hotel is located on the northern part the city but close to a train station which has two metro lines. Ireland has been on the top of bucket list for some time. Any book that I read whose setting is in Ireland describes a magical place and one I wanted to visit. Mario and I had the opportunity to explore Ireland over a long weekend and we were not disappointed!
We took advance of the first three day weekend of the new year but crossing another place off our list. We headed to Edinburgh, Scotland! I am a fan of the Harry Potter series and Edinburgh is the birthplace of it , so I was eager to see the places which help J. K. Rowling create Harry Potter Series.
As 2017 was coming to an end, Mario and I decided to crossed off two more cities from our bucket list. We decided to make Ramstein-Miesenbach our hub which was about 2 to 2.5 hours from the house depending on traffic. By doing this we decreased the commute time to these cities
Last weekend, a friend and I explored the Ludwigsburg Christmas Market. Here are a few pictures.
Tis the season for Christmas markets, one of my favorite times of the year. Last weekend a friend and I headed to Maulbronn which is about a 45 min drive from the house. It is home to the Maulbronn Monastery which is the former Roman Catholic Cistercian Abbey and Protestant seminary.
I headed to London over Thanksgiving break. This was time number three but still one of my favorite places to visit. The weather was cool and windy at times but all in all pretty nice weather for end of November.
