My husband travels to Germany several times a year on business and I have been fortunate to accompany him. The people are extremely nice and the country is beautiful! In the major cities it is easy to find people who speak English. I have toured by myself when my husband is working and I have had no problems getting around. I have toured mainly Frankfurt, Heidelberg, and the wine country and have enjoyed it all. Have a great time on your trip!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13857137605707358828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7446021541562074954.post-78523874557924780092013-05-19T07:30:11.450-07:002013-05-19T07:30:11.450-07:00Sounds like a wonderful trip!

I lived with a family in Strasbourg when I was an exchange student in HS and have such great memories of that city. You'll love it!Kerry@homecrushblog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02445562179550133786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7446021541562074954.post-52335889764589538822013-05-17T02:28:04.201-07:002013-05-17T02:28:04.201-07:00Wonderful.

There was a huge flea market in Nuremberg last week that I blogged about. Nuremberg has lots of historical places to visit. Munich is great. I would visit the Residenz Munich. They have the most beautiful decor inside and many of the decorations are by Kind Ludwig II who lived in the Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau castle. Speaking of which, you should definitely see those two castles, I blogged about them as well. Let me know if you need any more info. <br /><br />-Brittany RuthAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16086099955651501342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7446021541562074954.post-30785408820872164522013-05-16T13:03:09.004-07:002013-05-16T13:03:09.004-07:00Oh, I envy you!

To this day they groan when we bring up the subject of visiting these friends! I guess that's not what you want to hear! lol!

I lived very close to Strasbourg near Baden Baden in a tiny German village called Ottersweier. Oh how I miss it! Off the top of my head, I loved the Check Point Charlie Museum in Berlin. Of course you have to walk along the wall and bring a chunk back. Berlin was pretty incredible. I only went to Munich for Oktoberfest so I am not a lot of help there! The Eagles Nest in Berchtesgaden is awesome as is Salt Mines. We were at the Eagle's Nest and I said, "Look how close that cloud is!" The next minute we were in the cloud and you couldn't see a thing around you! That is how high up you are! Nuremberg is incredible. I love the tours through the underground tunnels and the Nazi Museum was amazing. I learned so much there! Strasbourg is just a lovely city to eat in and wander. The cathedral is gorgeous and has a unique astronomical clock. In Strasbourg, you have to eat Flammkuchen (the French word is Tarte Flambe)! It is unleavened pizza crust with Crème fraîche, onions, bacon or ham and cheese baked in a stone oven! Oh divine!!!
