we went to europe: rothenberg

Walt Disney must have been to Rothenberg, Germany because it looks exactly like Fantasyland. I'm not even kidding. You walk into this little village and you're basically walking through Snow White/Pinnochio/Disneyland. If you ever visit Germany you HAVE to visit Rothenberg. 

We bought a book that had a self-guided walking tour of the city and we saw an apothecary garden, the city walls with a small door you could bribe the guardsman to let you through at night if you got locked out, old fountains, and a giant cuckoo clock in the town square that actually still works. The city is famous for its Christmas markets in the winter, but we found a Christmas store that made it feel like December 25 in the middle of summer. This village was up there on our favorite list from the trip.
