Whew!! 13 months here have really flown by and now it is time for the next chapter!! A review in photos of all the fun I have experienced living abroad here in Germany.
Month May 2017
Burse, Freiburg, Germany
A great restaurant with outdoor seating in the plaza, offering wonderful food and traditional German cuisine, and, of course, I enjoyed the German hearty meal of Schnitzel, mixed salad, and potatoe salad. A wonderful meal in the plaza, a great way to fuel up on an adventure and a tasty way at that!!
Baden Baden Hillside Ruins
Kloster Ruins, a most favorite place
Tucked away in the small village of Frauenalb, Germany, the klosterruine are a true treasure and gem worth exploring.
Listed as a historic site and part of the National Park system, the ruins are filled with beauty and enchanting nooks and crannies. I hope you enjoy the tour.
Bühl and the Burg Windeck Ruins

And of course, we had to stop for a coffee break!!!
