Christmas Adventures Part 1: Erfurt part 2

Our full day in Erfurt we wandered all over spying on all the Christmas markets



Ramen for lunch from Jen Ramen - pretty tasty and good on a cold day

Erfurt is the home of a children's television station here in Germany so there were fun statues from their shows all over the town

We got some fresh soft pretzels here! So good!






Pear punch from a stall in Wenigemarkt - not too sweet so it was perfect! A lot of the non-alcoholic kinderpunsches are super sweet so I can't really drink much, but this had a light flavor and was nice to help us warm up




























Some treats from Zucker & Zimt which were really tasty

In the evening we wandered around Zitadelle Petersberg












The main Christmas market from the Citadel










Blurry photo but fried cauliflower and brussel sprouts from the market - the brussel sprouts were amazing!



A beet apple walnut flamkuchen from the market at Wenigemarkt - also super good!


And a Langos from the same market




With some Churros for dessert! All the treats!

This was such a nice day! The snow really made everything more magical, the Christmas markets were great and we loved trying all the things! And seeing all the cute statues around town!

Fall is here!

So not a whole lot has happened since I last posted. On our anniversary we were going to go on the boat tour of Berlin, but it was rainy and overcast so we decided to wait for a nice sunny day to do that. We had a few errands to run in the morning and then Raymond said about going to a museum. I saw the natural history museum and since I loved the one in Denver we decided to go there. You walk into this big room with lots of fossils and Dinosaurs! They didn't have a lot of things - this was the main room and is maim attraction of the museum. It was a tiny place, and they were doing renovations on a lot of the other exhibits. Apparently it is famous for having the largest dinosaur skeleton in the world! They also had these fun viewfinder things you could look through and if you point it at a dinosaur it would show this animation that filled them in and then showed them running around or eating or whatever. I thought it was fun. There was also a large room of rocks and m...
