Burt Bacharach





So as I mentioned, we went to Bacharach yesterday - it's in the Rhine River Valley.

It's very picturesque, and we took quite a few pictures on the river cruise of the castles along the way. In the picture of me and Chris, that little castle over Chris's shoulder is the one in Bacharach.

We did a wine tasting, and then had lunch. The wine tasting was a little messed up because the woman didn't speak English and instead of getting the sampling of sweet (lieblich) Reislings, which I love, we got the sampling of dry (trocken). They weren't bad, but just not what I wanted. I did, however, become completely shitfaced.

We stumbled over to a hotel restaurant and I got roast beef, and Chris got wild boar Sauerbraten. We also got salads, which was nice because I was missing green vegetables. It was fantastic!! So yummy.

Had another glass of wine, ran to get the train, and the passed out all the way back to Cologne.
