Rhine River Cruise with Mimzy and Pop Pop

Cruise down the Rhine River

Rothenburg ob der Tauber with Mimzy and Pop Pop

After a day at Playmobile Land, we went to Rothenburg ob der Tauber.  This is such a picturesque German town.  We got to go on the Night Watchman's Tour and take Rick Steeves' tour.  We had an charming bed and breakfast and really had a wonderful time.  But whose kidding, everything is magical with Mimzy and PopPop

The little door to let people in the city gate. 

Nuremburg with Mimzy and Pop Pop

On the day after Sam's birthday, we drove to Nuremburg with Mimzy and Pop Pop.  While they went to the Nazi Documentation Center, we took a paddle boat for a spin on the lake.  Then we all walked over to the Party Rally Grounds.  Just then the bottom let out and it poured rain like you wouldn't believe.  But because of the rain, we had the whole place to ourselves which made it very eerie.  

We were drenched and shivering cold, but Mimz and Pop Pop were still up for touring the town center.  We stopped in McDonald's and when we came out, the sky cleared up.  I love it when the world revolves around us.  We had a wonderful stroll through the Nuremburg.  

It is one of our favorite places.  

Sam turns 9

Mimzy and Pop Pop were here to celebrate Sam's birthday.  We met up with Becky, Amelia Alexander and her parents at the Pirate Ship Park per Sam's request.  

About a week before, we celebrated with the Ferneliuses at the Biosphere in the canopy walks and zipping down the long slide.  Sam was so lucky to celebrate with so many of our favorite people.  

Pooped :)
