Our First few Weeks

We've had several adventures in our first few weeks. We arrived on Monday, so our first time out and about all day was Saturday, which happened to coincide with the first day of the Stuttgart Spring Fest. Stuttgart is known for it's huge festival area and it's festivals. For Spring fest, they had rides, shops, food and beer. Here are a few pics.




Right in front of the hotel is a huge park that stretches for kilometers. The dogs have claimed their spots and have learned to wait to cross the street. They're acting like civilized city dogs, which is great when you're living in a hotel!

View from the Pullman Fontana. Our hotel is great. It's right next to a train and metro stop and walking distance to a mall, shops and plenty to eat. It took us a few weeks, but we've discovered the room service. I'm not sure how many more pizzas I can take.


This past weekend, we decided to explore downtown. We found a huge produce market and an antique market. It was such a gorgeous day of 75 degrees with a slight breeze. We found a square to sit and relax and then look around some more. I'm hoping to go back soon and take one of the walking city tours.


Here's what I bought. Don't worry, they're fake Hummels, but I love them.
