We drove down to Germany this weekend and had a great time! Jacob is spending a few weeks down on the continent, and I drove back to the UK Monday. In the above photo, Jacob is holding a cheesy pretzel and a pretzel-shaped beignet--both were delicious! We also ate some Schnitzel--doesn't it look amazing? (It totally was!)
Thanks to the recommendation of Jacob's brother Jared, Saturday we drove to Strasbourg, a beautiful city in France with some German influence. The Cathedral is massive and beautiful. There's a part of the city called "petite France" that's really cute, with quaint-looking timber-framed buildings and lochs and canals.
On our way to Strasbourg we passed through a town with an interesting name (see photo below). I'm sure some of you are thinking it was only fitting for me to find such a village... :)

Sunday we took the recommendation of our sister-in-law Emily's sister Jen and drove along a 55-kilometer (34-mile) stretch of the Rhine River, where we counted 19 castles! It was amazing! In the first photo you can see Jacob picking (and eating) blackberries along the side of the road; in the background (top right) of the photo you can also see a castle. The rest of the photos are some of the castles and beautiful autumn foliage. We LOVED this drive!
