Sunday Day!!

We started our day at Lautertal outside of Ulm, which is a beautiful valley. It was full of joggers, bicyclist and hikers. There is also a small beergarten here and of course it was full of people enjoying the 70° weather and of course their Hefeweizn. We had lunch and then drove to Herrlingen to visit Hanspeter and his family.
The picture above is in back of the beergarten...

Herrlingen is a small village very close to Matthias's village. One of Hitlers highest genaral Tank commander in the Second World War is from here. His museum is in the bottom of the Villa where Hanspeter and his family live. The picture above is the villa. The other rooms are used for meeting rooms, wedding rooms and a kitchen for the school nearby.


Rooms in this 1900 villa. Built and used as a summer home for a family who were big in the metal industry, today the company is over 600 employees. These are a few of the rooms in the villa. The room above was origanally a bowling lane room, now used as a photograpy groups meeting room.

The outside was once private land for the owners of the villa, with a beautiful park, horse stables and maids living quaters...now it is open to the public.
