Trier-a day out

                              Trier,Germany
 We decided to go see the famous city of Trier.At least if you live here it is an easy place to visit.It's about an hour from our house so not bad for a simple day trip. We meet up with some of Paul's buddies from work and toured around Trier. It is a fun city to visit with many things to see and a lot of roman ruins and roman baths that date back to the time of Christ or before.

 


           We walked all over Trier, enjoy the interesting and unique parts of the city. Down several sections of buildings there were all these picture frames hanging up with cute little scarecrows hanging off them for decorations.

They had music and festival entertainment going on in the town.The kids had fun and were great troopers throughout the day.We walked them all over then went to see  the ruins of these old Roman baths, and then to the Romans Festival.

rs.

The Kaiserthermen(Imperial Baths)   These are the underground passage ways(ruins) from the 4th century. They were discovered as they started to build a large paring garage. As they started the building they discovered these amazing baths or ruins underground. So the parking garage was never built and now you can tour the ruins of these baths. They are pretty amazing. Even the kids loved exploring them.                            

 

 

                

 These are the roman ruins.The roman festival was on the lawn in front of these ruins, with Roman culture and things.

The kids enjoyed the ruins and the cool wood swords they got at one of the booths at the roman festival.

They had a place with Roman Soldiers all dressed up and you could try on the helmets a use there swords for a picture. The kids and (Paul)enjoyed this.Reminds me of the Easter pageant days growing up  and me and my sisters chillin with all the Roman Soldiers haha

This was by the famous Porta Nigra. It is pretty amazing. We got to this part at the end of the day and the kids were tired as we had walked them all over the city,so we will have to come back another day to tour the Porta Nigra.

Another great Adventure.........................

Rhine River Cruise

 We got to enjoy some of the beautiful castles and country side in Germany.We went on the Rhine River Cruise.It was amazing.It is about an hour drive from our house.After we arrived there we went on one of the cruise boats.As you ride down the river on a boat there are castles in every direction.It was beautiful. We went with our good friends the Urtons. The kids had a great time on the boat. After being on the boat for about an hour we got of to tour one of the castles. What a wonderful day. Hopefully one day some of you can come to visit us in Germany and we can take you on this Rhine cruise.You see about 20 castles along the way. We live in one of the most beautiful places. Above our friends look this picture of us kissing in front of one of the castles as we passed. It turned out pretty cute.

This was on the way to the Cruise we took.Trevor was having a great time trying on his sisters glasses, and of coarse we had to picture, for future black male. haha

This is the boat we went on. We loved sitting up on the deck, and enjoying the beautiful day and the beautiful castles and countryside.









The kids had a great time on the boat and enjoyed hanging out with the Urton kids.It was fun to sit on the deck.

This was a "WOW" experience.
