Germany.

The red car is ours and Mike had to press a button to bring it down so that we could leave the hotel.

I am the worst blogger ever! So, catching up with our trip. We left Amsterdam Wednesday morning and took a train to Dusseldorf, Germany to pick up our rental car. Then, we drove to Munster which had the best market ever. There were fresh meat vendors and flowers and fruits and vegetables. and the best pumpkins and gourds. Everything was beautiful. We ate at a food stand there (yum) and walked around the square. Then, we got back in the car and headed to Bremen. Bremen is an great town and the jewel of the Hanseatic League (we spent alot of time this trip in Hanseatic cities, so now we are experts). Anyway, it is pretty amazing because they became a power player in the 1200s and were in charge of ports as far away as Bergen, Norway (more on Bergen later). The old town is beautiful and there is one street called the Boettcherstrasse that was incredible! Brick buildings with quirky details like aquariums and art niches. Very cool and art nouveau. Bremen is famous for its Three Musicians tale and its statue of a donkey, dog, cat and rooster. It just occured to me that there are four animals, not three. Hmm. I should look into that. Next stop, Luebeck Germany.
