Grandpa and I slept in today.....not because we wanted to but we just
did! I woke up at 8:45am and he awoke at 9:15. We hit the road about 10:30am.Grandpa and I slept in today.....not because we wanted to but we just

Already (based upon the preliminary itinerary I put together before
we left) we are two days "behind". But not really....it has been
very enjoyable and we often would like to just stay put. But we're both
concerned about missing out on the wonderful sights to see in Southern Germany.
Today, we were going to Hameln, through Hannover to the a little town
called Celle. Then overnight in Berlin. We didn't make it----we're staying
in Hameln.
Instead of pushing it too hard, we stopped off in this glorious little
town called Padeborn where we could've easily spent the day. It had a magnificent
cathedral and many fine shops.
This gorgeous huge cathedral made up for our disappointment
in the Dom in Koln (Cologne).
Grandpa obviously enjoying his cappucino in the market square
in front of the cathedral. There are vendors of fruits and vegetables
setting up in the background.
