These pictures are from my stroll around the old town last week. Marburg is a city in a valley surrounded by hills. A castle sits on top of one of the hills and the old town, with its very many old quaint houses, shops and cobblestone walkways, sort of spills down on the hill overlooking the more modern part of the city below. It is very charming and I looking forward to exploring it further. (That's my niece Mya in the middle, there, in case all is not clear. I figured as long as I was posting charming pictures . . .)Rudi was making an undoubtedly fantastic cake when I was last in the kitchen.

Those pictures are so amazing. Almost making me regret not coming with you. With a place like that your going to have to watch out for dragons.

Holy cow, I love European architecture. Maybe we should build a Gothic cathedral on the Crossway farm...
So what kind of cake was it? :)
WOW.
I adore European towns. It looks like a GREAT place to spend a few months.
It was a round yellow cake sliced into two layers with creme icing and bananas in the middle. He made the same cake two nights in a row!
Thanks again for the comments, guys, its so nice to hear from hometown friends.
Jared,
Love the pics (so sweet that you added one of Mya....makes me think of our OBX vacation and nice warm weather)and the cake sounds delicious too! Two nights in a row -- I could go for that :) Maybe you'll have to make it for us when you get back.
Thanks for the updates!

I am loving your photos! They most definitely bring back memories of the summer for me! (even if we weren't in Marburg)
I am so excited that you get to spend an extended period of time in a place like this! I must admit I am jealous; we just never seemed to stay in one place long enough to soak it all in. Just don't let it become common for you!
Enjoy your weekend!
