We finally started travelling! Not overseas but a nearby city. It was an impromptu thing. We wanted to go to a spa place at the Boden See but realized that it would take about 4 hours bothways, so we opted for a closer alternative. Ulm´s only about 1 hour away from where we live, so we 
In front of the world´s highest cathedral. My fashion for climbing stairs - with boots! hahah, but they were really comfortable, so there was no problem! We climbed to the top of it, all 768 stairs!
Top:That´s my beanie trying to look fierce and macho (to no avail - Notice how he´s holding my red handbag?) The spiraling stairway was pretty narrow. However the architecture was so good that even in the 14th century, they divided the 768 stairs into 3 different segments, where ppl could stop for a break. The stairs would also spiral in different directions at consecutive segments, so ppl wouldn´t faint from giddyness.
Top: The last lap of climbing to the top. There was only enough space for one person to ascend/descend at any one time. We all had to wait against the walls for ppl to pass us by before continuing our ascend.
Our reward: A panoramic view of the state of Baden-Württemberg
Nice sunny day at the lake with swans....looking at beautiful houses....
Love coupley shots.....in front of the lake and city wall (notice the castle in the background?)
A trip is incomplete without us treating ourselves to a nice meal in a restaurant. We found ourselves a quaint German restaurant where we warmed ourselves. My jacket wasn´t warm enough you see.... We walked around for 4 hours after climbing and descending 768 stairs.
Swäbisch soup - Stephan had it as a starter and I sipped some from him
My "riesengarnele"- giant prawns and fish with cream sauce and risotto. Honest opinion, it was pretty delectable but somehow their definition of "giant" doesn´t seem to quite fit with my definition.
Superbly well-done and juice meat! Turkey and pork. My resolution: Next time we eat at a German restaurant, I shall go for their meat dishes......
