Today we got up really early and headed to Trier. It took a little over 2hrs on the train to get here. It rained the whole morning while on the bus and when we got there as well. We took a taxi to our hotel because it happens to be very far away from city center. After we got there we were informed that our room was not ready yet. They held our big bags for us and we set off to find a giant play park I found online. We took the bus back to city center and then walked off into the forest.
We thought we would never find the playground and then around the corner..... We found a different on that was right in the middle of the forest.
What luck we have. After we took some photos we headed of on a path. It breached off to go deeper in the wood or up into a little suburb. I thought I would run up and just see what it looked like and over the top of the hill was this futuristic town with what do you know a full park full of play areas!!!!!
What a great start to the day! Now we are waiting for the bus to head down to town to see the sights.
Well we ended up having to wait like 45 in the cold for the bus and then it was going the wrong way so it ended up taking us a total of 1.5hrs to get back to town. Oh well at least the bus was warm. Once we got down town it started to rain so we did a quick walk around to see all the sights or trier. It is a beautiful and small town nestled in the valley of two small mountains. Very green and very wet!
We saw old churches and ancient buildings influenced by the Romans. After about an hour of walking it really started to pour and we walked another 15min in the rain to the bus and headed home. Here is a taste of what we saw in the city.
Now we are home recuperating from our full day of walking in the rain! Going to grab a bite to eat and maybe a beer and then sleepy time! I am really tired. Last night there was yelling in the street all night, so I probably only slept about 2hrs.
Night night and thanks for reading!
