Part III - Back in Germany

We left Rome in time to be back for the Party. This was my grandma's birthday cake which was delicious!! Somebody shot some really great pictures of my mom:
And of my Dad and me. This is my cousin and her husband . . . who will maybe come visit us some day :) I also got to see 2 of my friends, whom I hadn't seen in years. It was really great to catch up and hopefully it won't take as many years to meet again. This is "Die Mosel" the Moselle River. I took this on the way to Trier. Trier is the oldest city in Germany. You can read more about the city and the Porta Nigra (picture below) here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trier
The market place:

Jaegerschnitzel mit Fritten und Salat . . . it was sooo good!!

We were also there in time for the 'Pigfest' in Wittlich. The pig was delicious as well!! Here's some more about he city of Wittlich, http://www.wittlich.de/z-englisch/touristik/weinstadt.htm
I was actually born there a few years ago :)



We had a really good time. We will have to see when we go back again. Mom and Dad will be with us for Christmas this year. We are excited about them coming.
