The Rheingau - Rheine River
The grapes
Vineyards - yum the beginnings of wine.
the thing that Elvis rode in in that movie.
So these pictures were taken in May of '09 but who really wants to see snowy pictures. This picture is of the wine museum in the area. There are lots of interesting artifacts in there including one of the oldest boots to drink from. As you can see there is a vineyard both next to and behind the museum. Once you complete your tour you can engage in wine tasting.
This is Germania... toasting France. Built after the Germans were freed from the French.
This is a castle along the Rheingau. There are several castles that line this particular area.
This is a view of the Rheine River from Germania.

Sweet castle! Have you been inside yet?
ReplyDeleteI have not been in them yet. But maybe this summer. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is a little chilly to be near the river right now.
