Bacharach, Germany June 12, 2013 (Rhine Country)


Ever had a sausage roll?  Ever had a bratwurst?  Ever had a bratwurst sausage roll?  Delicious.  That was how I started my day today.  3 trains and 4 hours brought us to Bacharach, Germany.  We are staying in a Castle – it is actually a Castle which has been converted to a youth hostel – 60 Euros gets us a room (to ourselves) and breakfast – IN A CASTLE.  So cool.  Did I mention that the castle also has about 60 kids on a field trip staying here relatively unsupervised?  Oh well, still staying in a castle.  Probably a good thing that they had availability for only one night.  We will find something in town for tomorrow night.  We walked down to town.  We walked around town, had a beer (big surprise) and Jan had a milkshake.  Walked to the Rhine and looked around and then popped in to the Posthof for dinner – not too hungry so Jan and I shared a salad and bratwurst (another big surprise) and crème brulee (another big surprise).  Hiked back up to the Castle and a quiet evening (ha ha) overlooking the Rhine.  Pictures later - WIFI not great here.  Guten Abend!
