Rothenburg ob der Tauber - 5th to 6th of July 2011

What a mission! It took 4 different trains and nearly 5 hours to reach Rothenburg, but man was it worth it. Arguably our favourite spot in Germany, its a picture perfect town fully enclosed by walls. Similar to lots of other towns we've fallen in love with (think St Gimignano in Italy or Carcassonne in France), but distinctly German. We wandered through and around the town before finding some wine and sitting down with a book outside one of the town gates, an amazing afternoon.
