Our Day

in Rudesheim
Today we drove to Rudesheim, which is a touristy town on the Rhine River. We took the ferry across the Rhine, and then walked around town. We strolled down Drosselgasse, a popular street full of music, wine taverns, shops and restaurants. Then we road a cable car high in the sky over vineyards and countryside to the Niederwald Monument. This monument is of the mythical figure Germania and commemorates the German empire of 1870.
