We've been having fun!

Grandma and Grandpa are in town and we have been busy! It is a lot of work being a tourist but we have been having so much fun. The weather was supposed to be cruddy the entire time they were here and although it rained a few days, the days that we headed out ended up being perfect! We went to Nurnberg (the Old Town and the zoo!), Velburg, Rothenburg, and Regensberg. So many bergs, so little time. ;) I hope we showed them a great time - we had a lot of fun and enjoyed their company. And right as Luke was getting warmed up and really having fun with his grandparents around, they have to leave to return to their lives in Tennessee. We are glad they came out to hang out with us and to meet their newest little one, Hannah. 

 Monday - The Zoo!

Luke totally dug the polar bears.  He could have stood here all day watching them pace back and forth and play in the water. 

And his other favorite, the giraffes.  It was one of the only times I could get him to smile at the camera and it was only because he was so excited to get his picture taken with Melman (you know, the giraffe from Madagascar)

Friday - On the train to Regenberg!

On the Old Stone Bridge

Climbing a tree at the Eis cafe - we had to stop and relax after our long walk over the bridge, down to the fest and back!  We also stopped for lunch, walked along the river and peeked in all the churches and cathedrals!

Headed home - what a fun day!
