we have been on adventures, but ive been so busy having adventures that i havent taken any pictures of them.
we rented a car cuz we thought it would be more comfortable and free! which has been the case for the most part, eythor was a little rusty at first, he hadnt driven since we got married, almost a year ago! but he has been doing a great job and loves driving on the autobahn hahaha. arg the map to reality ratio isnt the best though, we've gotten lost a few times but nothing extreme :D adventures adventures!!
lets see where the heck did we go? oh going back a little we went to the temple the weekend before sometime and went to dresden (that place is a flipping castle yo! some fancy as people were having some sort of event there with all the touristas hanging out walking in and out of wha ever the heck they were up to) as well! it ws so pretty, but because it was a saturday it was filled with all manner of tourists! i mean for serious, it was like 17. juni or sumin. it was pretty gross but still really old and pretty, and as far as i know still being rebuilt from being bombed the crap of from the poms.
back to this part or whatever, first we went to a place called weimar it was nice there, a little goethe obsessed, as was a lot of that area, there were very few tourists there and the old part of town was almost deserted seeing as how we got there late (meaning after 6)
then we went on to the next little town called arnstadt that place was pretty weird, they had this way old wall around the place which was kind of awesome, then there was this bell tower that was not conected to anything, just sticking up out of nowheres for funnzies. but the most awesome part of this place was the castle ruin (s?) it was a huga and glorious back in the day, but just some rocks now and the built tons of minatures amoungst the ruins i felt like a giant stomping about the place. there wa this tall as towere there as well but it looked pretty shakey jakey and costed money so we skipped that :) then was this blasphenmous church called bachkircke, basicall the church of bach, did i hear lightning in the vicinity? it was not pretty but had an interesting interioir. we staed the night there in a hotel that was like 500 years old or something, i felt like i was at the prancing pony.
then we went to wurzburg, famoous for a massive fort on the top of the hill, again we were late so everything was closing but we got to walk around the grouds this place was huge! the walls were like a meter and a half thick on the top and got wider and wider, it was pretty crazy and really impressive. we basically just went straight through the city but there were so many things there that i would want to come back and see, like this place so princessy!
then we got to where we are right now, bad wimpfen, a famously pretty little village with virtually no tourists and an australian themed pub down the road ;) so far we have been doin a lot of manly manly things, (side note: ive never been so outnumbered in all my life, three dudes and little old me) yesterday we went to the audi factory (oh did i forget to mention, eythors uncle works there, an engineer, he works on designing customizations, putting a fridge in somehwere for example, why one should have a fridge in a car, i dont know [also he has a sweet sweet a5 {and a motorbike and something called a triumph but those are several other stories}]) and took the tour, it was crazy, loud and amazing, modern industry go figure. and we got to sit in a R8, we decided they are not half bad. then today we went for a drive in the country, that is to say we went to see hockenheimring (some famousy racetrack? anyways there were some crazy cars outside of it, ferrari, a few audi R8s and the like) and then eythor got to drive the triumph a very little bit, he likes modern cars better, hahahaa. and then we drove by the hoffenheim stadium, were this icelandic dude plays. needless to say eythor has been very chuffed :D and i have had a constant headache from the heat and humidity, so sticky! :p
tomorrow is my birthday, it doesnt really feel like it, eythor got me a lovely present before we went on our trip, and i will absolutely take a picture of them soon.
so here i am blogging at a table that belonged to eythors grandfather, while the men watch fußball (some league or other has just begun)
my goal for this trip has been to actually go inside a castle, so far it hasnt happened but im confident it will!
and im gonna take pictures starting right now!! but ill post them at a later time
til then, wonderful friends!
