Guten Tag!
Hello from Germany! We rented a car and drove the five hours to my friend Jenni's house in Germany. They have a beautiful home right on the Rhine river. Seriously, floor to ceiling views of the river. We've been spoiled with home cooked meals including this beautiful little cake. The little town they live in is called Eltville am Rhein and it is a quintessential charming German town with cobblestone streets and its very own castle. Here are a couple pictures of us exploring today.
How beautiful! Looks like yall are having a great experience.
ReplyDeleteThat IS the best part about living in Europe- everything is a day trip away. We grew up going to Rothenburg most Decembers and Germany quickly became one of my favorite vacations.
ReplyDelete(Your hair has looked so great in your since-the-move photos. I love those bangs/"fringe.")
Thanks for posting these photos! It makes me so excited to go to Germany someday. I'm going to have to make a round cake and frost it pink now! Your hair also looks so pretty!

ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing so much of your travels. I love it!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness - what a beautiful town (and a beautiful cake, too!). So German looking!
ReplyDeleteWow, looks gorgeous. And that cake! Yummy!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, makes me a bit homesick, I grew up about 20 minutes from there..
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing in the summer too with all the outdoors wine bars.
Thanks for sharing, your blog is pure sunshine!
Guten Tag und viel Spaß wünsche ich euch :)
ReplyDeletegreetings from Berlin

ReplyDeleteLovely town and home.
ReplyDeleteso neat! and i agree with the other kelli, your hair has been looking especially gorge since the move! ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful day you must have had -- what a charming town! And that cake! Love reading all about your adventures ...
ReplyDeleteWow, Jordan - Is it just me or is anyone else gaga over that table covering? Simply stunning!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely little holiday in Germany... and thanks for sharing!
How I wish I could travel! That cake looks super delish.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Germany and miss it so much! Thanks for your lovely photos.
ReplyDeleteps. I miss the German ice cream the most.
Hi Jordan! I'm Kim, Jenni's sis. I've never seen your blog before (shame on Jen, seriously), but my friend sent me an email today saying, "Is this your house?" I laughed. So happy that you had a good time. My parents are the greatest and yes, that is the best table cloth in the universe!! :)
ReplyDeletePaul! Your photos look fantastic! And.. Jordan --you look awesome... so pretty.
ReplyDeleteYou`re in Eltville? That`s incredible. I studied in Mainz, lived there for 9 years and moved then to Wiesbaden for 2 years. Don`t miss to visit Wiesbaden with all it`s beautiful Jugendstil houses. And don`t miss the Loreley. I wish you nice days in my old home area.

Funny, not too far away from the place I visited yesterday!
ReplyDeleteTheir view of the river is to die for. Just lovely.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat! Germany looks worth exploring. I agree your bangs are cute, and I think you look more European and quite pretty in the photo with a natural lip color (maybe no lipstick at all?).
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet little cake!
ReplyDeleteOh I recognize Jenni in her yellow jacket. ;D You took beautiful photos of Eltville! I´m glad you are enjoying your time here in Germany. Don´t forget to come to Johannisberg (it´s only 10 min away from Eltville). You would love it!
ReplyDeleteso wonderful following your adventure! really really inspiring. there is nothing like eating cake on a misty day in germany!
ReplyDeletei'm not sure how that cake tasted, but man, it's pretty!! :)
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing those crazy, knobby trees in Frankfurt and just loving them. They're so unique.
ReplyDeleteGermany looks beautiful and so does that wonderful tapestry used as a backdrop!
