Germany - Rothenburg ob der tauber

While in Germany,Kingsley's sister Sally took us on a fun day trip to visit the town called Rothenburg ob der tauber which in English means "red fortress above the tauber". The city is located on a hill overlooking the Tauber river.

Rothenburg is your classic medieval town and has been featured in several movies including one of my all time favorites Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

On of the things Rothenburg is known for is their Schnee Balls (snowballs) which are these softball sized donut like pastries.
They looked so good we couldn't help but buy a few...okay so we bought 5. They look a lot smaller in the shopfront window.
