This country attended 2 major war calls. Today it smiles through the beauty of Rhine falls!

An entire country was divided by a wall…

But today this place smiles through a beauty called the Rhine Falls.

Hello friends! Welcome to the land of poets and thinkers, Germany!

Herzlich willkommen in Deutschland, dem Land der Dichter und Denker!

Everyone was under the hangover of the naturally beautiful Netherlands.

The evening signaled of restless curiosity.

For we were entering Cologne, Germany’s fourth most populous city!

The Cologne Cathedral, being a world UNESCO heritage site and the largest Gothic church

In Northern Europe, attracted us all for a photo-stop.

After experiencing this first German fascination,

Dinner and sleep got our attention.

Having spent some time in cologne,

We wished each other Guten morgen/good morning in Stuttgart, our next German travel zone.

Because I am learning German as a foreign language/ Deutsch ALS Fremdsprache,

All this was like a dream come true!

From now onwards,

I was able to make real, practical use of my German language with native people!

The day started with a memorable visit to my most awaited attractions,

The Mercedes-Benz Museum!

This 8 leveled automobile museum,

Displays all the passed Mercedes-Benz models and the history of the luxury car brand.

With our cameras being in the; I  am busy! Mode

And an audio description about the museum complimenting the whole thing,

The journey of the car maker was an inspiring experience as we explored its story.

Besides the amazing sites of Germany,

What I enjoyed most here was the polite,

Friendly nature of the people I interacted with!

What’s the time? A bird answer’s this question!

The day followed on with a visit to the Cuckoo clock factory in Titisee.

A 4 to 5 minute presentation told us the story of the cuckoo clocks.

Be it shopping for the clocks,

Or simply strolling around the area of the factory taking in the nature’s beauty were the ways in which the remaining day flew away.

Friends? Have you ever eaten/heard of the black forest cake?

The morning greeted us in the black forest region.

The black forest is an area with closely growing trees,

So close, that sunlight does not reach the ground!

Surprisingly, the black forest, Or at least the area where we were was empty of wildlife except for some birds blending in the atmosphere with their sweet sounds.

Cruising through the region,

We saw half-timber houses, ruined castles and much more!

The clean, splashy Rhine River and a warm atmosphere became the cherry on the cake!

Although not as high as those usually found in India,

We experienced some really jolly moments at the Rhine falls!

Be it the refreshing beauty that surrounded us as we took a boat ride to the source of the falls,

Or the cleanliness,

Everything there was amazingly amazing!

The journey through Germany or Deutschland,

Was so fun-filled and fantastic,

That the experience set our hopes on an even higher travel stand!

See you! Tschuss!
