We have flown with many different airlines- Lufthansa is, by far, the best. Kind service. Comfortable, roomy seats. Complimentary beer and wine and snacks on one hour flights! Wish we had known we would get a free snack, we would have skipped the pretzel sandwich. I took the free sandwich, just to try it. It was surprisingly good- roasted zucchini, tomato, and eggplant with mozzarella. Too bad I already had a snack 😦

We shared a small pretzel stick with cabbage and ham dipped in spicy mustard served with sparkling water and a cappuccino. I’m not a fan of long airport waits

Amazingly, we had a great meal of leftovers and miscellaneous bits and pieces.

Burgers in warm pita with tsatziki, grilled onions and peppers, salads, and sautéed zucchini and peppers. Yum!

London, here we come!

We’re headed to London today! We’ve had a busy morning packing and cleaning. We each had two nectarines and half an iced coffee for breakfast. Sorry I forgot a picture… I was busy thinking about everything else I have to do and I completely forgot

We finally made it to to the top of the Rheinturm- the world’s tallest digital clock! Although you can’t tell what time is it from the inside, you can enjoy stunning views and tasty cocktails!

We had to have Uerige Alt beer one last time. The fries completed a well balanced meal 😉

Adam loves ramen, so we couldn’t miss Takumi Ramenhaus on our last day in Dusseldorf.

We started with pork dumplings- yum! Adam had pork and noodles in a meaty broth. I had beef, veggies, and noodles dipped in a rich miso broth. Adam loved everything. My dish fell a little flat- sweet and salty, but not tart or spicy. Not bad, but not my favorite.

Breakfast? Speckfast. I slowly crisped speck while fresh bread baked in the oven. I cut up some fresh fruit and mixed iced coffees. Speck is too salty for me, but Adam can’t get enough of it… We need to get home and back on the healthy eating bandwagon before we both have heart attacks! I had a couple small bites, but decided to shift my focus towards the fresh bread and butter instead 🙂 Adam was happy to relieve me of my piece.

After some junk food, we were craving real food. Garlic herb burgers in pitas with tsatziki and sautéed onions and bell peppers and big salads. Yum!

Sunday in Germany + rain = nothing to do. All the shops are closed. Parks and walking are out. Day in watching TV and snacking? Of course!

We had chocolates, chips, wine, strawberries and raspberries. Not too bad. Forgot a picture though
