From Rothenburg, we drove about 45 minutes to Dinkelsbühl on the Romantisch Road. The route took us on narrow one-lane farm roads through the rolling countryside filled with tended fields and forests. The maize has been harvested. Saw new crops of rapeseed growing and a couple of spectacular fields of sunflowers–bright golden yellow, facing the sun. Mostly rolling fields, many freshly plowed.










Dinkelsbühl is one of the most enchanting towns I’ve ever seen. It was like a fairytale, with every house and every building perfectly restored and colorful, with half-timber homes and businesses of every color and design. It was amazing. We really loved it all. There was a bakery stop for Aaron and an ice cream stop for John. We found a tourist info place for Abbey with a bathroom and we got a map and suggestions of where to walk to see the best parts of the old town. We went into the old churches and enjoyed the Fraktur word descriptions or names on each establishment. We walked along the old city wall. There was a creek/river and old towers and old trees and quiet cobblestone walkways. It really was absolutely enchanting.
