Ramada Park Hotel Nuernberg Nuremberg

... because we didn&#8217;t understand a word of it, we ate the local gingerbread delicacies, we shopped at the markets, we warmed up from the rain and had a cup of coffee, and eventually had dinner in a quaint, very authentic restaurant where he had traditional Franconian food and some of the local Tucher beer.<br><br>The next morning we had a nice breakfast at the hotel and headed out for our last day of ...

... an hour, but they did have to make 200 total (there is an error rate of about 1 in 10 though, but the errors are just sold at 2nd rate rather than first). <br><br>In order to make the piece, you have to get a blob (yes, blob) of liquefied glass and blow into it to begin the shaping process. Once there is a decent size bubble in the glass, they lower it into a wood mold and continue to blow the bubble bigger, all the while taking the desired shape. Once it is completely hollowed out ...

... and took buses to Nuremberg. We visited the Zeppelin Field where the big Nazi Rallies were held and the Hall of Justice where the Nuremberg Trials took place. Bought a souvenir pin at Market Square and had cokes at a bistro while waiting for the bus to take us back to the ship. <br><br>

... 8230;This team happens to be in the german league and is the home team to Nuremburg! So we just couldn't pass up the opportunity to watch a home game of our beloved team!<br><br>The local fans are intense. Coming in full fan gear of scarves, jerseys, flags and some even brought tamtams that were miked up to increase the energy of the crowd! Me and Chris got scarves and a pretzel and beer and sat to ...

... has to offer. We bought a spatula (scrambled eggs) and some fruits!<br><br>So we have had brautwurst and currywurst and everywurst possible in the past few days! We decided to splurge and went to a snazzy Chinese restaurant for supper! This is only worth mentioning because I ate the biggest most delicious eggroll I have ever had ever!<br><br>We will be coming back to Nuremberg but for now on to Stuttgart!!!!

... the main square of the city. It was filled with many stands selling anything and everything. There was one stand that just sold brushes, and another where there were people demonstrating how to use some knives to make some kind of coleslaw.<br><br>Also on the square was the Frauenkirche, a very beautiful church that we didn&#8217;t go inside for some reason. And there was also a "Beautiful Fountain", literally. That&#8217;s its name. Just look at the picture, you&#8217;ll ...

... t obvious unless you looked real close at it, and we left quickly after that. There was a fruit and vegetable bazaar on the bridge over the river Pegnitz, which bisects the town. Arriving at market square, we found it full of vendors of all sorts of wares, each in a stall with matching red and white striped awnings. One was a broom and brush shop which carried pretty much anything with bristles, and of course the pitchmen were selling the super chopper ...

... traffic on the road, especially caravans and mobile homes, which may have been related to it being a public holiday today. However, it all flowed very well (unless we ran into roadworks!). We were especially impressed with the way everyone moved out to overtake and then moved quickly back into the centre or left lane to allow the next car to pass.<br><br>We were wondering where we might stop for lunch, then the car started to warn we were running low on fuel (diesel ...

... was pretty much flattened in 1945 but many of the original buildings have been rebuilt and its an amazing city. The walls are massive, thick, and most impressive. Its a lot of what you would expect in the typical German city. To the poor folk in Ottawa, the first thing we noticed when we arrived was the sky was blue, no rain clouds in any direction and almost no humidity ...

... Zeppelin Fields. a lot of the old videos you see of Hitler speaking to thousands of Nazi supporters, took place and were filmed at the Zeppelin Fields. we stood high up exactly where Hitler would look down and out to over 200,000 people saluting him. it was very chilling. the grounds themselves are actually quite beautiful, with 2 lakes, so today there are carnivals, fairs, water sports, and such that go on here. ever in the background are ...
