We have been to all of these places in the last week. What a round of travelling. Karlsruhe was the least exciting of them all but somehow Gerhard managed to, again, get us into yet another red light district. Drats on those 'mother hold onto your children' signs. This time, however, the road was filled with older ladies looking quite tired and each of them had a dog in the room with them. They didn't seem to be too interested in anything in the streets - least of all, us two. The road had a 6 inch-thick, iron gate to close in on the area. Seedy looking area I'll tell you. It didn't take us too long to get out of there.
In Karlsruhe, Gerhard also lost one of his crowns and so we had to find a dentist here and have it recemented. I'll let him tell you all sometime about his trip to the office. Now, he is trying to tell me that he is Agent 007.. Yeah, right.
We also took the train one day and went to Heidelberg and had a lovely time walking around that beautiful university town and drinking their wine. We visited the castle and just enjoyed the place.
We arrived in Stuttgart yesterday and immediately went out to find a place to eat. So imagine, we are in Germany and walk straight into a French restaurant to have a special meal, served to us by a frenchman, surrounded by only french people and eating a french crepe filled with turkey. It was great. After leaving here, guess where we found ourselves again? Yes, you are correct. In Stuttgart's red light district. How do we do this? We definitely have to stop getting ourselves lost. Not a collection of interesting girls??? selling themselves in Stuttgart either. Where are all the pretty ones from Amsterdam?
Imagine, last night we stayed out until 8:30. We feel all grown up. Today we set out to explore the city again and then jumped onto another train to go to Esslingen - one of the oldest towns in Germany. We have been having a great time here and are now looking for a place to have some wine. But first we found this internet place and thought that we should check in.
We head out tomorrow for Paris and are staying in a little dive place for next to no money. We will log on again when we find a suitable place.
toodles loved ones.
