Rothenburg

We had a fun trip to the town of Rothenburg this past weekend. It is one of the most toured cities in German. It is known for it's historic structures and the wall around the city. We kept ourselves busy looking through many little shops and walking along the wall. You can actually climb stairs up to the top of the wall and walk around the top. It was neat to see the city from that point of view. There were a couple of Christmas shops that we LOVED. Christmas is a huge thing in Germany. They have Christmas markets all over the place once November hits. These stores are up all year round. I saw so many things I would have loved to had, but couldn't. We also went through the criminal museum. It showed how people were dealt with back in the day. It was really neat, but also kind of gross. We left Rothenburg and drove on what it called the Romantic Road. It has beautiful scenery along the road. It was even better than usual because the leaves were PERFECT. It is just so beautiful here right now.
