traveling in Germany





ok, two weeks ago me, the other John, Erica, Simmon, and Felipe rented a car and set out to see some of Bavaria. we went to Bamberg, then stayed the night in Nuremberg, then went to Mainberg and finally Munich. the pictures here are first, Felipe caving in to his need to try getting milk out of fiber glass cows. he can't help it. I think it's a Brazilian thing. then you have Erica making it all the way to 10:18 am to pop her first bier. she doesn't have a drinking problem, she can stop any time she wants. the next 3 photos are selected shots of Bamberg. I think this town was my favorite. Felipe would tell you it was a fantastic town. the first of the 3 is the outside of this small pub that sells rauchbier, that means smoke bier for you people not in the know. Bamberg is known for this style of bier, and I've had it before in America. it was terrible there, but here it was great. we only had time to drink one, but i think i could have drank at least one more. Bamberg looks like the Germany from hundreds of years ago. little winding streets that don't make much since and are easy to get turned lost in. lots of bridges and hills. wish we could have spent more time there.
