Originally, we were planning to head to a Medieval festival near Idar-Oberstein, however, once we arrived, the festival was a bit less than we expected so we decided to skip out on the festival and check out downtown Idar, which is beautiful. One of the most unique parts about this small town is that there is a church built directly into the side of a mountain overlooking the entire city! It is also one of the largest cities for jewlery making, so we did a bit of window shopping through the street-market (another really common thing in Germany is street vendors and outdoor markets, FABULOUS!) The entire city is beautiful, with tons of buildings, tunnels, churches and shops to take a look at. Here are some of our pictures of the trip ....
After sightseeing in the wonderful city, we took off to a chinese restuarant that my boss is constantly reccomending, China Dinistie (the weirdest spelling ever!) The restuarant is buffet style chinese, and smelled delicious, however, baby R was not a fan of the food, so Michael was the only one who really got to enjoy the food. It was good while it lasted!
Our next major trip will be traveling to London during late November. We finalized reservations today! We will be sure to post as many pictures as we can possibly take of the UK! Hopefully we'll run into some famous people while we're there!
