Our dogs must eat more roughage than German dogs.

On the wall we met a German family biking and camping from L-R the German sisters are #3 and 5. The kids exchanged email addresses
The wall surrounding the city was a little scary to climb up to

We spent a day and a half in Rothenberg Germany. The highlights:
Night Watchman and executioners tours, playing for the locals in the town square and shopping. Walking the wall around the town.
The town is a medieval town that was 40% destroyed at the end of WWII. Locals put out advertisements world wide and received the money to rebuild. Our hotel was 2 buildings outside the city wall.
The night watchman's tour was very well publicized and we loved it. We also noted an executioners tour which we went to, showed up a few minutes late to no one. We waited for 10 minutes and went to the information desk. They directed us to a pedicab driver. I told him it was our last night there, we had saved out 10 Euro and that was it, to go to his tour. Would he be willing to give just the two of us a tour? He said sure and took about 7 minutes to dress in his costume. He was an executioner in 1399 and was a great actor. We laughed the whole time.
