Train Tickets, Ice Cream, Music Fest, and Scary Dungeons (Nuremberg, Germany)


My sister Mayah and I got up earlier than everyone and after the two of use ate breakfast we went to the train station to get my ticket to Passau and ice cream to boot. 

Nuremberg on a Saturday at the height of summer with a music festival going on is a wickedly packed place.  Oh the people watching that will be done today.   By the way, what up with wearing back pantyhose when it is nearly 100 degrees out…why are we wearing cloths at all?

Mom was doing a little shopping so the rest of us decided to grab a bite to eat at the concessions for the music festival.  Meika was in heaven because we found a noodle and rice vendor.  Yummers…. would rather do sausage but noodles good too. 

Next stop was the dungeons.  We waited 30 minutes for the tour in German to begin.  All of five minutes down the tunnels both the girls freaked out, next thing we are back outside.  Oh well.

Spent the rest of the day people watching in cafes, playing in water fountain and drinking wine…beginning to think this is the good life.   I leave the family tomorrow for Passau and if all goes well I will see them there before I head to Vienna.  They board their 8-day Viking Cruise along the Rhine tomorrow and I plan to stalk them at every port in-between here and Budapest.
