Sept Adventures 2023: Hiking around Wernigerode

Today we got up and got going to hike up to the Wernigerode Castle 









View from the castle






Then we wandered over to a lookout tower on the Fairy Tale trail



Rapunzel's Tower

Views from the top






We wandered back to town on most of the fairy tale trail which was fun


Then relaxed with a drink in the main square

And another quick wander around town







When we were having a drink at Weißer Hirsch Hotel in the main square we spied on the food options and decided to come back for dinner. We had the cauliflower soup with edamame, and the tomato zucchini risotto with lemon pepper tofu, grilled eggplant and balsamic. This was much better than the night prior, but was still lacking seasoning. Raymond thought it might be because we were definitely on the younger side for people we saw wandering around here and maybe they cater to an older crowd. 

But the views were great! And a great way to end our day of wandering

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...
