This is me in Trier, Germany having a beer with the Colonel. (Don’t be fooled by that water bottle.)

Trier is one of the oldest cities in Europe. It was originally surrounded by a wall when the Romans conquered practically the whole world.

This is a wall that encloses the Roman Baths. Not very discreet if you ask me.

The actual Roman Baths. (It was a really dark and gloomy day.)

What a gloomy little town…

Karl Marx birthplace/house. It’s now a museum. (and no, he was not home.)

Lichtenberg castle….

October at Lichtenberg castle….so dark…so gloomy..so scary..

The view from the top of the tower…

The tower and surrounding area of the castle…

The castle from afar..

Awww…a little german house amongst the castle ruins…

The fountains of K-Town…

On my way to the castle ruins, I pass a flowing stream in the middle of the town..

On my way to the castle ruins, I have to pass through an alley way…(I so could have gotten kidnapped and ended up on ebay instead of STAtravel).

The Frankenstein ruins at the top of the mountain.

The Church, Abbey, and Castle from the town below…

From the bottom center of the castle…

Potato soup! (Kartoffle Suppe…i dunno) Cherry pastry and a Raddler beer! The best meal ever after hiking up a scary mountain to see the Frankenstein caslte!
