Cochem, Germany

 

Ever since being back here in Germany,
I know there is so many places we missed when we first live here in Europe.

But this one, 
Cochem 
This is definitely a destination you should make.

The drive to Cochem was amazing.
The drive through the Mosel was so Beautiful
You already can tell how Beautiful it is here.




The Castle?!
Do not skip it.

It was one of the most Beautiful Castle I've ever seen!







The view from the top was just incredible.





Every angle was so Beautiful!!




To get inside.
You buy the tickets by the entrance
You come in with a guide with a specific time.

It was nice because you get to know history about the Castle.



This dining area was definitely my favorite.





There was a balcony that just have the most Breathtaking view.




The tour was about 45 minutes.
Worth every second.

I loved it so much!!





After the Castle we walked to the city center
which is not that far. 

It was definitely a down hill 
So definitely wear a walking shoes.





We stopped for some Gelato of course!





And walked some more.





We walked by the water and enjoy the view.





We found this Weingarten and I'm so glad it wasn't that busy.





We got the nicest spot to hangout
There's a mini playground of course!






I had some white wine.
Perfect for this view!




Cheers!





The vibe was so good!






We ordered a Snack platter and fries.




It was so nice!





..And oh so good too!
It was just the perfect snack with wine.





What an amazing day in Cochem!

I love it so much!!

Kusel Autumn Festival

 


We went to see Kusel's Autumn Festival!

Kusel is a short drive from where we live so we couldn't miss.




The parade started right when we got there.
They threw candies to kids!
It was kind of fun to watch it for a little bit.






After passing the Parade we went to one of the Gelato places.
This was Yogurt flavor and Pistachio,
SO good!!










Yummmm!!









The parade was long and It was getting crowded so 
We decided to hangout to one of the Biergarten,
Everyone was enjoying the parade so the Biergarten was
not busy at all!





My First Rose Schorle.

I have never heard of this before!





I guess its a big thing here for Wine Festivals.
It's a Rose Wine with Sparkling water.

My husband who is not a wine drinker 
thought that this was actually good.
He could actually enjoy drinking it.

It was so refreshing!!





Then we shared a plate of  German Fair Food.
The usual 
and my favorite.

It was a fun weekend!!

Homburg, Germany


We love exploring here in Germany,
I can't believe how close is this one for us.

We mainly wanted to check out the caves.
But of course explore more of the city.




It was so beautiful!










It was a perfect summer day.





The cave was so cool.









Definitely worth visiting!







It was so cold there
Perfect on a hot day!






After the cave we went for a walk downtown.






It was so alive with weekend markets and events.
There was mini concert happening and a farmers market.





We decided to sit down and have snack and drinks.





This Gelato was so good!








Cheers!





I found this one very interesting.
A purple artichokes?
So many of them buying it and apparently it's not to eat.
But it's like a flower boquet.





After having snack we went to the park to let the kids play.
This park was so interesting 
It has many statues of wonders of the world.




It was very interesting.




We had an amazing day!!
