Nurnberg



This weekend we went to Nurnberg. (Nor-en-berg). They are known for Nurnberg sausages which are supposed to be the best sausages in the world but, I didn't think so. We went to this castle thing with 3 sides. It was kind of boring. The thing that excited me the most was the toy museum! It had like 5 floors of old dusty toys! The toys that I remembered from when I was little were the: E.T doll, the Smurfs, Barbies, and TeleTubbies. There was this gold fountain thing in the village square that had a silver ring built into it. If you touched the silver ring you would get good luck. I touched the ring three times for extra good luck. My dad's friend went with us to Nurnberg. He was cool and he knew a lot about it! A lot of the buildings were damaged by bombs in the war but, they fixed it up and now you can't even tell that they were destroyed. Anyway the pictures of the trip show me touching the ring and the other picture shows the Glockenspiel.
