I spent a lovely weekend in Bamberg, Germany. I highly recommend it to anyone in the area.
It was so cold the river had frozen over!
I decided I want to live in a house that backs onto a river, and have a little boat out the back of it.
Of course, the food was excellent too.
I was a little nervous because I expected people in “real Germany” to be less forgiving with my lack of German skills, but everyone was super friendly and lovely. I think they are used to lots of English speaking tourists 
It made a wonderful weekend adventure. I’m a very lucky girl.
