• Marzipan hunt!

    Today in Germany ⋅ 🌧 18 °C

    After breakfast at the Hotel, Pilar and I headed back into the Altstadt in search of Marzipan. We went to the famous Niedregger Café, but we must have had our invisible suits on as the waitresses gave us a stiff ignoring. On the third time of asking, I shouted a few explietives in the general direction of the staff and we moved to the 2nd most famous Marzipan cake supplier. Exceptional Service at the Weiner Café, they even layed out the red carpet for us! Following a Marzipan induced sugar-rush we got some steps in to burn off excess energy taking in the beautiful historical buildings of Lübeck and a pop-up commual flower garden. Finishing our activities around lunchtime alongside the harbour, we were forced to take shelter from the rain at the Fangfrisch Fish & Chip stand. Drooling like Bella at feedimg time, we ended up ordering a portion and they were as good as anything in Blighty (if not better). When the rain eased, we headed back, stopping for some more Marzipan, (when in Rome....) followed by a short Mittagschlaf in the Hotel.Read more
