A first to Euope 2017

finally, planned and made my first trip to Europe. A DIY trip to Germany, Italy and Holland.

really took a lot of research and time to figure out the train connections, tickets and such and finally, we are on our way!

Germany -Nuremberg / Rothenburg

Arrived in Frankfurt on Good Friday. After a night of rest, took the train directly to Nurnburg. Finally realise that every where is in german language and English signs are almost non-existent! even in some places of attracttions. at least some have an audio guide to help is understand.

Visted the old town and happened to chance upon an Easter market whole we are at the Altasdt in Nurnberg! yum yum food and interesting things they sell!

walked up the castle, and by the time we finished walking back, and had a dinner of Pasta,  most of the shops are closed and it's pretty quiet on the streets by 8pm!


Rothenberg

The next day, we took the train to Rothenberg. Took us 2 changes and we were super confused by the platform and train details which is all in German! lucky managed to asked and got help from a passerby!

it's a beautiful little town with it's own character. but as it's the good friday / Easter holiday,  almost all the shops are closed. we could only window shopped literally! but it still makes an interesting visit!
