So, some of Frankenthal, the place where I stayed and Hambacher

Can I just ask our german members why they need to know that a tiny overgrown footbath wont be gritted.....ah well...only in Germany Wink
...      

Our first barbeque....quickly eaten before being chased off by a German farmer for throwing apples at his house Cheesy
...      

Frankenthal Rathaus
...      

View from Hambacher Schloss
...      

The castle itself (the intact looking building is a reconstruction with a museum in, the actual castle is the ruins sloping down the foreground
...      

The Luftwaffe in action...only had my compact and it was quite high....they were flying over frequently when we were in Neustadt, we also got a formation of four Tornados and a tanker of some description and it looked like they were refuelling (white vapour trailing for a few seconds......) Unfortunately no pics, as I grabbed my friends super zoom camera but had no idea how to use it Cheesy)
...      

Speyer Dom
...

Bonus points for anyone who knows what happened at Hambacher Wink

Why would you throw apples at some poor Germans? It's not like they were invading Belgium or anything...  Grin

We were actually seeing how far we could throw them...using the roof of the house as a marker...a few of us got them over the roof whilst others hit windows  Roll Eyes Undecided Roll Eyes

The Hambacher Fest 1848, the prelude to democracy in Germany (took a while to get into action 'tho).



That came straight from the back of my mind.


- Edit: Had a look. It was 1832. Feck!
