Germany... In a nutshell

Germany. Our favourite country so far. We stayed in Heidelberg, Nuremburg & Munich & found each to be interesting & beautiful. We barely touched the computer the entire week we were there, so we decided to post pictures from all of the cities in one go...

There was plenty of beer drinking, fascintating history learnt, national dishes sampled & general exploring.

Here is the photographic evidence...

The only photo from Nuremburg. Nazi Party Rally grounds. We stayed in Nuremburg for just one night & visited the (aptly named) Museum of Fascination & Terror.

We loved the Sandemans New Europe Walking Tour of Munich and the Dachau Tour - our guide Sonja was brilliant!
