Stuttgart

This morning we drove into Stuttgart and went to Birkenkopf. As we walked through the park
( pic 1), we finally got to the top of the hill. This is where they put all the ruins from Stuttgart after it was bombed in WWII. Fifty percent of the city was destroyed. 165 million cubic feet of destroyed buildings were moved to this area and it added 130 ft of height to the hill (Pics2-5). The view of Stuttgart from above was great!(pic 6,7).
Saw a wonderful church in Stuttgart, Johanneskirche(pics 8-10). It was closed so we could only enjoy it from outside.
Enjoyed lunch at a beer garden near the church. I always drink a Radler, a mixture of beer and sprite! It’s very refreshing.
Then we went to the Porsche Museum(pic 11). I think the guys really took it in.
The second to last my bit of humor for the day from the bathroom at the beer garden!
And the last pic is of the 3 of us at The top of Birkenkopf.

Highlight of the day: the weather here has been perfect, sunny but cool temps!Baca selengkapnya
