Wuerzburg

There is lots to see and do in Wuerzburg (1 hr from Vorra) - we took it easy, shopped and hit up the Marketplatz. We were surprised at how much we missed the hustle & bustle of Korea and found a taste of it here in the University City of Wuerzburg. I loved the old (architecture, surrounded by vineyards) meets new (street cars, shopping and doner kebabs).

Love, Mel & Vince
Note the vineyards in the background.










Kurbis Fest followed by Apfel fest


Gruss Gott! A Bavarian Willkommen :)
The Kurbis fest was in a large village and easy to find. However, it took a little navigating to get to the very 'local' Apfel fest.

Parking in a corn field...

This is oooo la la! 3 fried apfels in a vanilla sauce.

No apples here!

Kurbis (Pumpkin) Fest 2009!

Ahhh the Germans love a good fest! Kurbis was our first and of course we enjoyed the food & shopping :) I bought a fresh wreath that I looovee and smells awesome!



Savory kurbis suppe.
It tasted like a deviled egg made w/ kurbis & onion on brot. I heart kurbis!

Gotta love the hat.
