Sankt Goar

Last weekend we took advantage of our 4 day weekend and spent it in Sankt (Saint) Goar and other small towns along the Rhine/Mosel River. Almost everywhere you looked you could see a new castle up in the hills.

Inside the caves of Rheinfels Castle. You needed your own candlelight as you got deeper into them.

The town of Rudesheim with gondola lifts!

We made it to the top

Fortress ruins in the bottom of the hills

Typical German beer gardens notice the band and one dancing couple

mmmmmmm

In Koblenz where the the Mosel meets the Rhine. These guys were fighting over who got to play their music in the best spot.

Drove down the Mosel and ended up in Cochem. This photo was taken from the castle on the hill.

East of Holland to Germany!

A few weeks ago we drove over to the east of the Netherlands and visited some small towns like Denekamp, Enschede, Twente and ventured over to Munster, Germany. One highlight was seeing all the Heisterkamp trucks in the town of Oldenzaal!!!

Hmmmm which car do you think is ours?

In Denekamp, enjoying the woods and cherry pie

We came across this make-shift bridge and trusted that we could get across safely. Fortunately we did!
