Monday we arise had breakfast and went out to venture around the town. We caught the city-Bahn Road Train which took us around the town and up to the base of Merkur mountain.
After our train ride we went back to the hotel, checked out, walked around town and then drove our car back to the base of Merkur mountain where we caught another Funicular Railway to the top. Once there we found a restaurant and many people eating their picnic lunches. Here we found another breathtaking view.
We then got in our car, and started our journey back to Frankfurt. Our weekend consisted of fantastic weather, great company, and unbelievable sights. On our way home we purchased some white asparagus (a german dish). Which we cooked on Tuesday night. It was okay. But then we like asparagus. White asparagus has a milder taste. But requires more work to cook. You have to peel it (like a carrot) and then boil it or cook it in the oven. Usually they put a sauce over it. (Hollandaise or Lemon Butter) We doubt it will be a regular addition to our dinner fare. We returned to work on Tuesday.
