Headline: Day Off to be a Tourist!

Ron Turiello is a great tour guide. After a short run, he encouraged me to go for a drive south and decide what to see on the way. We went off the Autobahn at Wurzberg and went down into the center of that city. After Ron bought us a very expensive a coffee, and taking lots of photos (see below) we got back on the Autobahn and I drove 150 kpm (about 93 mph most of the way to Rothenberg. Rothenberg is a really old city and has a walled city in the center. We went there, as Ron had taken his family there 20 years ago, and took a lot more photos. There were quite a few Americans there, probably people in the service nearby. We had a nice lunch, went up into the tower of the town hall, visited the Christmas Museum and attached tourist souvenir chop, and visited the Museum of Criminal Torture. Then we had a sandwich and got back on the Autobahn, where I put that 6-speed Mercedes up over 100 most of the way back.
