Germany 2023 Part 19: Bamberg, Days 4 and 5 #bamberg #germany #travel #bavaria
This is a Sunday morning in bomberg last night Saturday night the streets were packed everybody was out they said that’s normal for Saturday on Bamberg even Fridays but it is 11:00 and as we always tell people Germany is closed after 6 on Friday and closed all day
Sunday and there’s no way you get this in that way that’s all right other than all the construction it is a very quiet sunnd just a little color variations in all the buildings Cafe you’d think it was s or 8 in the morning but it is almost
Noon the city’s waking up a little here at noon getting a slightly more awake area yeah but it’s really we we saw this in the evening when the clouds and storms were coming in and then we walked through it the next day when it was cloudy so this is
The first time we’re really seeing it in the light you know in sunlight and it makes it a very different experience in a lot of ways but now we can catch the town the AL in the sunlight and the river level which clearly went up after the rainstorms the other day you are
Funny thing is we have we have walked every bridge in this town we really have is that the crane we saw blowing around the other night is what they call Little Venice over there part of it that’s part of Little Venice over there we saw it last night
But it it is very cool and different to see bomberg in the sunlight now to see this part of bomberg uh sorry I want to take this in big time I know we’ve seen it several times but this is first time seing it in a
Blue sky with the sun and oh is that cool the I think the river is going right under it or under around it but yeah you have to do it okay what a nice little shot ah there we go Beauty with beauty I said Beauty with beauty for
I just need a super wide angled camera I’d love to get the whole thing in one shot see and then I’ll make the official Bamber video out of the sunny shots we’re doing and I don’t know that we need to go I mean it’s up to you I don’t know if
We need to go back to the residence in the cathedral I we what pretty little Park here all right damn new part of bomberg we’re discovering today now go ahead there’s a lot of fountains in bomberg but half of them are not running pretty and know these smell pretty too this is the
Bomburger Courthouse not that you’re getting a great view of it until I get past the trees we’re coming up to a take the second exit onto I can get it all in here you with this now that’s cool and this is the light nits Institute so again if we weren’t desperate for toothpaste we would not have seen this so there’s a view back towards town and we live in that area over there yeah you got some people Boogie
Boarding and uh all right so Joyce and I are heading up to the little Monastery here Franciscan Monastery pretty little grounds it’ll have there so one last morning in bomberg it’s it’s a nice city I’ve enjoyed it we have been at a slower pace which
Maybe is not a great thing but it’s been good okay good we’re hiking up to a it’s going to be another hot one and I haven’t gotten that much shorter we’re really on the slope yeah yeah so there we’ll put Joyce in front now she’s to camera right there
You go oh we’ll have to go portrait there we are there we are so okay all right so he’s up there we got to go up a set of stairs yeah but you get sort of a view of part of the town the university and I say bomberg makes you earn
It lot of steep climbs there’s the castle we were at a couple of days ago good meal good beer and one Monastery that is under construction so you’re not allowed to go in you can go up and walk around it but we’ll go to the gardens
I just think it looks cool with the cathedral in the background so this this is a monastery it’s a historical site but it’s an active monastery just getting ready to open a couple of the ends here little bit of what’s left up their Gardens normally this whole thing would
Be G Gardens and grounds but they’ve tore up a lot of it for uh construction let’s turn it this way it’s all under construction okay I’m there so we can go back out that way do you want to go back out the way we came um you weren’t you weren’t born
Into nobility but you got raised to a level just below nobility so a fry hair meant a free Lord a free man so you weren’t a knight but you R you were like a patrician or somebody who worked his way up to a level that they but yeah we’ve been here once before
Four oh not exactly where I expected to come out but I’ll take it as a win absolutely take it as a win the boat is selling tickets and loading up right there baby got down to the river here and we want to take a boat ride right there but this is called Little
Venice uh I didn’t I discovered this spot earlier swim trunks on okay we can’t go this way so we have to go back up and around oh well sorry honey but I found a little shortcut and what I did was find a great photographic View and access to the river oh there’s

Into another Canal black okay the Viking yeah
It’s our last days in Bamberg. Tired from nearly a month in Germany, we elected just to relax and take it easy. We had planned to go to Bayreuth or Wurzburg, but we elected to stay in Bamberg and just keep to the town and see more here.
This is also when Anthony and Horst really began going through his train collection and bonded so much more. It was fun to see.
I hope you all didn’t mind the posting of all our vacation videos, but I thought we could share them a bit. I am debating whether to post our UK 2022 videos.

Hi guys 👍 awesome buildings especially the on in the middle of the bridge. I bet the restaurant in the middle of the river gets very busy.
Thanks for sharing
