Wurzburg

Alina and Julien dropped us off at Darmstadt Hauptbahnhoff (main station). We said our goodbyes and made plans for Alina and Julien to visit (Feb/March 2026, mark it in your calendars!). We then made our way to Frankfurt where we caught our bus to Wurzburg.

Nathan visited Wurzburg 10 years ago and remembered it as a beautiful little German town on the Main River, just inside the Bavarian border. We dropped our bags and went exploring, stopping for a quick beer on the river before heading up to the Marienberg Fortress on the hill. Some great views over Wurzburg and a beautiful breeze made it a nice place to relax for a little bit. We tried to visit the garden at the fortress, but there was some restoration work going on so we were unable to get inside.

We headed back into town, recreated a photo Nathan took 10 years ago on the old bridge, before heading for dinner. Vietnamese was on the menu tonight and Vela was very happy to find some super spicy chili's. Back to the hotel to rest up. We made a spur-of-the-moment decision to purchase tickets to the Spain v France Eurocup semi-final in Munich tomorrow night, so looking forward to experiencing some European football!Weiterlesen
