the last supper

With no restaurants within walking distance, we decided to eat at the hotel restaurant. It was also an excuse to use up our euros instead of trying to get them converted back in the States.

It was a wonderful meal. I finally had my kraut and sausage. The plate was artistically arranged with a pile of mashed potatoes layered with six sausages in a radial pattern, then the kraut placed on top. One of the best meals so far. Of course I also had to get some dessert of apfel (apple) strudel with cinnemon ice cream. All washed down with a dunkel bier.

We had nice quiet evening, reflecting how much we have done in such a short time. This was only a taste of Europe, but I know that when the opportunity comes along again, I will be back to see more of it. There will be some culture shock going back to the U.S. and I'm not looking forward to the jetlag this week, but it is worth it.

My next blog will be from the other side of the ocean.
