We took a train from Prague to Neuremberg on Monday morning and arrived at our hotel to two Chocolate Santas for the boys. They were thrilled! 
We then took a walk into the Old City to find the famous Christmas market!
Ripley was so excited to ride the wooden Ferris wheel at the children's market.
He went on all by himself and had a great time!
We then found a cool restaurant over the river that served wonderful sausage and potatoes. When in Rome, right?
The was the name of the restaurant!
We then walked home through the market for dessert. We loved this marshmallow covered in chocolate with a waffle at the bottom.
The Christmas market at night.
The next morning, we went to the train museum. Can you see Michael?
Ripley absolutely loved the trains!
He even got to dress up as a ticket taker and take our tickets. The caption of this one, "No ticket!"
He also loved being the conductor!
The boys even got to play at the Play Mobile train village. Play Mobile's headquarters are near Nuremberg.
The boys also loved riding on the real train!
And they loved taking pictures of the old time train passengers!
We then walked around the city to the castle.
The castle.
We even went to St. Sebaldus, which was heavily bombed in 1945. There was a choir practicing for the upcoming Christmas Mass.
We then went to another Christmas market and did a lot of eating. This is rices potato that is fried and served with applesauce.
And who doesn't love corn on a stick! Ripley ate both!
And I fell in love with the beautiful gingerbread cookies.
We then trained into Munich. More to come soon!
