Rothenburg

Tuesday, April 24

Big breakfast but very traditional German. We start by trying to find a place to do laundry. It is hopeless. So our first stop is the Lutheran church with the two beautiful altars. Then we compare it to the old Catholic church which is devoid of most decoration.


A long stop at the gigantic Christmas store, only one of six just in this town!


Lunch is a doner kabob for a change of pace. Then we visit the Museum of Medieval Torture, a bit more shopping (Steve gets his stein), buy some schneeballen, and back for a rest.



It is a pleasant early evening so we walk some of the old city wall.

Time for dinner so we head to an Italian restaurant that is packed. The waiter tells us it will take at least an hour to get food so we decide to leave.  We are still in mood for Italian so go to Cafe Michelangelo which we passed earlier today. Dinner is delicious. Potato soup with asparagus and truffle oil, carbonara, and a salami pizza. It's topped off with a nice Italian red.
