Western Germany

We just got back from a week in Western Germany. We stayed near the Eifel National Forest, which is on the German side of the Belgium border. As usual, I will bore you to death with photos :-) I just never want to forget this time here.!!! There is so much countryside to see in this region, and apart from a few rainy days, we had a really fun time.

Below are pictures from the Mosel Valley. It is famous for its adorable villages along the Mosel River, as well as its vineyards. It is really a beautiful area, with so much character and quaintness!
This picture was taken as we were driving parallel to the river - the river cruise boats and barges take full advantage of the rivers throughout Germany...

This little tractor reminded me of the little engine that could.... I think I can.....


We spent the afternoon in an adorable town called Cochem. It sits right on the river, and is one of the cutest towns I have ever been to.

We stopped in at a store for wine tasting - they even had a "kinder" table for the kids :-)

Camden being goofy :-)

Along the Mosel River...

This is the town of Cochem - so picture perfect!

Our purchases after the wine tasting - I will truly miss the inexpensive, but great wines in Europe!!!!
