Kallmunz

Tobias’ son went to Poland with his mother for Easter which left the 3 of us free for the day. Tobias also had use of the car so he took us to one of his favourite towns nearby called Kallmunz. The town is full of artists and there are many shops for such a small town. The town itself sits right on the bank of the river and this time of year the river was full and running fast. Julie and I thought it completely impractical and unsafe to live so close to the river. Tobias showed us a few plaques indicating the highest the water has been in town (basically just below the first floor windows). We also saw a few houses that were built right into the cliff face. We have seen this before and find it pretty impressive. But before we wandered the town, we did a small hike up the cliff to a ruined fortress. The view from atop the ruins was great. Afterwards Tobias drove us to another small town, where one of his friends lives, to find a favourite beergarden of his. The beer was different from what we have tried before and both Julie and I liked it. It being Easter weekend not much was going on and we learned that during Easter all the bars have to shut down at midnight, so surprising for a long weekend. I should mention that after another delicious dinner by Tobias we played a round of the Wizard game and Julie finally managed to win.
