Beyond the Walls on the Tauber

I wanted to see the Tauber River, and the old double bridge over it, so off we went. We passed Saint Wolfgang's (I really regret not naming one of my kids that, it's a great name), and went out through another gate, then along the walls and down.

It was a lot of down, very hilly. Of course, that was going to mean a lot of up to get back to the town and the car. I didn't take that into consideration until we were at the bottom though, and I was really tired and cranky.

Too late. It was a nice walk. We found a church down by the water, but it was locked up. Found the bridge, then came back up the hill. I shouldn't complain about the hills, because they provide the proper elevation, soil, etc, the proper terroir, to grow the grapes that make that nice Franconian wine.Read more
