Within a quarter of a mile- we were suddenly in a farm area of sweeping hillsides. Wheat and corn fields- some ready for harvest, some that had already been harvested, and some of the fields were plowed under ready for their winter's rest.

This is my village from a distance.
AND guess what else is there?
Yes, that is a castle.

What beautiful countryside, the pictures are gorgeous!
I agree! After living in a crowded city of 16million-- it is so nice to see nature and beautiful landscapes along the roads. I'll have a 15-20 minute commute each way.
The photos here... are walkable from my soon to be new home and that will be a nice outing... (once the unpacking is finished, of course!)
My daughter lived in a small village (Otterberg, I think) over there for a few years. She loved being able to walk from her little apartment to a nearby bakery and pub/eatery, and drug store.
Another thing she noticed there was the difference in how people regard their animals. She said it was not uncommon to see people bring their dogs into the pub. I had always hoped to visit her there, but she moved before we got the chance. :-)
The hotel that I'm staying in- has a restaurant and you do see some people bringing their dogs into the place during lunches and dinners.
I would love that! I'm just nutty enough with my dog that I hate to leave her when we go out. I often tell my husband, "if we were in Germany, we could take Leyna (our Min Pin) to dinner with us!". ;-Þ
pictures...i love pictures!! and the clouds! i love those clouds! ya gotta get closer for a better picture of the castle from a distance...or send me new glasses. so what is the name of the village? what part of germany are you in? ok, i will calm down some and give you time...but probably not much!
ps, i finally got some pictures in my blog...not as good as yours but i have not learned how to use my new camera but getting better with my cell phone!
I'm in Bavaria... near the town of Grafenwohr. *The town that I'm moving to- doesn't show up on maps... bummer.
