Schwartzwald - Day 2/3

After a hearty nap, Zac woke about 5pm sunday and we walked over to a nearby city fest.

It was a smallish beer tent with (lame) live music. Fun was being had by the stein. We stayed for one drink and headed back to the hotel for a light dinner.

We had a much easier bedtime this time and I fell asleep well before Stephen did (most likely because I tasked him with making sure Zac got to sleep ok - I was too pooped to keep going and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow).

Zac was up again at 6am, packing and cleaning was follows by b-fast at 7:30 and then off to cuckoo clock shopping.

Our first stop was to "the first worlds largest clock". We were disappointed because the doors were locked even though the posted hours stated they should be open. It turned out to be a good thing though because there s a difference between the "first" and the current "largest clock".

We found the current largest clock and it was considerably larger. For €2 each we got to go inside the clock and watch the gears turning. Very cool.

We then drove a bit and started our shopping trip near the bottom of the waterfalls we had visited earlier.

We found a clock with a more simple style and just a cuckoo (no music). See the photo on my Facebook profile.

Now we're on our way home and not a moment too soon (see photo).
