Bayreuth


On our way from Munich to Berlin, we stopped in a small town called Bayreuth. The town is famous for having been where the composer Wagner lived and died, and for a huge concert hall erected under his supervision. We visited none of those things. The town was still ridiculously charming and idyllic, nonetheless.



We ate lunch at a Bavarian restaurant, thanks to our guidebook's recommendation. Our food was awesome! So was our beer. Here is Brian with an Oskar beer (the bar's own beer), and I had a Maisel's Weiss. Oh yeah, and the bar was decorated Bavarian-style, complete with pretzels draped in blue and white ribbons hanging off the chandeliers.









After lunch we walked around the town a bit more. Here is Brian in front of the fountain that lies in front of the palace. that was in the town.










In Bayreuth, horses puke water!















Here is the lovely gardens outside of the palace. There sure are a lot of castles and gardens in Germany!
