Day 6: German Road Trip - The Road Home


We hit the road at 8:30 am GPS said 11 1/2 hours till HOME
But............ we had a few stops along the way.
So we knew it was going to be a LONG day! 


Snowballs for Breakfast~ Mine was Cappuccino YUM! 
kinda tasted a little like pie crust...



Stop one: Weiesbaden - 



Stop two: Darmstad.... 2 Starbucks latter and NO MUG! 
Sooooo Sad!!! 





They did have a pretty cool Starbucks with a statue for King Ludewig
Same King that built Neuschwanstein Castle

Stop three: Mainz
Apparently no photos- But it was a REALLY cute little town! 
Also.... No Mug! :( 

 Stop four: Frankfurt


Hey~ Its the guy from Seattle's Brother.....
Apparently he works here.... 



Cool Trolley





THEY HAD A MUG!!!
My day has now improved! 


Quick Lunch


I really liked this city~ It had a very home like feel.
Busy and energetic! 


Ya hes mine~ and I LOVE him so much! 
My Starbucks kid~ He chose not to get a muffin at Starbucks in the morning
Hoping that somewhere on our 4 (turned into 6 looking for mugs)
Starbucks journey we would find a scone...
To his disappointment German Starbucks don't serve scones. 



What crumbs on my face??? 


HAHAHAHAHA~ A Segway tour group! 
See like I said~ reminded me of home....
Have you ever been to Portland?? Its an awesomely odd place! 



Good bye big city! 


Strange building in the middle of no-where,
up on the hill ~ where we stopped to get gas.

Stop five: Nuremburg

So far one of my favorites~ such a cute little town! 



Some of the city seemed to be built into/inside the old castle walls.



















Right here we are inside the castle walls~ We are going to drive up this street...


and through a arch way out of the city


People sitting up on the castle wall.


cool gate


Solar panels and windmills are everywhere in Germany. 


Still have about 5 more hours on the road as the sun sets and reflects of the Danube River.

German Road trip = Success 
8/11 intended Starbucks Mugs acquired.
Now to find the other 3 online or from friends!
