Back again.......here is one of those fun towel animals that often surprise you when you come back to your room ☺
We had a stroll around Wurzburg which is located in the north-western Bavaria. This building is called "Residenz" built for the prince-bishops and was very decadent indeed, no photo's allowed inside.....and in front is the Franconia fountain
a distant shot of the Alte Mainbrucke (old bridge) which was erected from 1473-1543in place of an old Romanesque bridge. The characteristic 12 statues were added around 1730. Google it for better pics ☺
Then onto here
still warm and sunny
Woody relaxing on the towel animal lol
cruising along as you do
Miltenberg......a small village which suffered greatly from a 30 year war and could not afford to replace its old, medieval heart with its half timbered houses.....it is as if Miltenberg is stuck in time, just like a fairy tale ☺☺
an interesting fountain lol
we enjoyed our short visit here....
yep going through a lock again
onto Rudesheim
Where we were parked
some of our tour group rode off in the little train.....

Got to love seeing the quaint buildings and this is Eagle Tower built in the 15th century
