We had an early train to catch, so I made breakfast to go. Vanilla almond yogurt with peaches, plums, and crunchy muesli with iced coffee. A great start to a long day of travel and sightseeing! Boppard, here we come!

We spent most of the day inside reading and relaxing, but that got boring 😉 Dave suggested beer and pizza and we were all on board!

We headed to Altstadt (old town) and had some delicious beers and great pizza. There were so many people out tonight. The air was buzzing with fun and conversation. We loved it!

We started with an arugula, Parmesan, pine nut and Parma ham salad- yum! Adam had the veggie pizza with an egg on top. I ordered the caper, anchovy, and mushroom, but I received the tuna, mushroom, and pepperoni pizza. Although I was worried about tuna on a pizza, it wasn’t too bad. The crust was charred and crispy. The cheese was high quality mozzarella- so creamy! Great idea Dave!

We slept in until 2 and I felt like cooking, so I made a bok choi, onion, snow pea, garlic, ginger, cilantro, shrimp stir fry with egg fried rice. Super fresh and tasty!

We decided to do as the Germans do and have a late night picnic, with lots of wine and beer of course 🙂 We left our apartment at about midnight and walked to the Rhine. We found a comfy spot in the grass and enjoyed cheese, wine, fresh veggies, pretzels, and chocolate. We talked and people watched as barges silently floated by. What a fun evening! The Germans really know what they’re doing! Sorry it was too dark for pictures, you’ll just have to imagine…

While everyone else went shopping, I sat at a cafe, gave myself a French manicure, and had a snack 🙂

I enjoyed a piece of raspberry butter cake and a cappuccino.

We went to an all-you-can-eat sushi place for breakfast and lunch 🙂 Fun times!

We had sushi, sushi, and sushi with vegetable ramen (it was gross), seaweed salad (yum), cuttlefish salad (also yum), kimchi, dumplings, crispy fried duck (wow!), edamame, and sushi. It was definitely not the best sushi, but it satisfied our need for sushi in our bellies 🙂

Light and simple. Preparation for unlimited SUSHI!!!

We had a long day of sight seeing and we needed some sushi in our bellies! We searched and searched to no avail. Everything was closed 😦

We ended up at a strange International cuisine restaurant that was surprisingly good. My experience with international is typically bad- a restaurant that does many cuisines poorly, but Vamps delivered.

I had a delightfully limy Cuba Libre and the chicken curry with basmati rice. It was rich and spicy with tender pieces of chicken and perfectly cooked and seasoned rice. Adam had the gyro platter. Gyro meat with fries and a sweet and sour cabbage salad- also good.

He, he, he…
