The Day After the Festivities

Day 3, September 27th :
Since we didn't do much shopping our first day in town because we wanted to see what the fest had we figured stopping back in Marienplatz for the morning made the most sense. We walked around the market more and stopped in a few stores before we headed back to Baumholder.

I wish we lived in a bigger city that had markets all the time! I'd love
to be able to grocery shop here. Such a great selection and so fresh!

I mean look at all these potatoes!

We even stumbled upon a cute lil doggy enjoying some water in the square.
He eventually ended up getting all the way in!

This was just a random wall we walked past.
I thought it looked neat.

And this was right after the vines on the wall. I'd love to have
something like this maybe in a backyard area for privacy? Hot tub area?!

Plus you can't go wrong with all this cheese to pick from!
I love living in this country. Don't get me wrong America rocks but Europe
has a lot of cool aspects I really love.

These guys were cute. Wooden handmade ducks.
Adorable for a patio I'd think.

Then, on top of veggies, fruits, and cheese we also came across delicious fresh spices!
A chef's heaven.

Being in the September-October season I love this picture!

I honestly have no idea what these are but took the photo for fun.
I love to photograph plants for some reason. I know I'll have so many amazing
pictures to frame after living here.

VEGGIES. Cynthia bought one of these HUGE artichokes.

Mo' Peppas.
Love the vibrant colors.

I know I posted a few pictures on another blog post but I love the
door hangers they were selling. Even with a brezel on 'em
*so German*

I collect shot glasses from all the cities and places we go.
I didn't get this one this time because I got one from Oktoberfest BUT
next time I'm in Munich I'll buy it to commemorate that trip.

This was a sign outside a little food shop we walked past.

I took this one for my mommy! We were in a Christmas store and I saw so many Santas I know
she would have loved!

Another duckie! I really might start collecting them.
Is that sad? He's adorbs.
*brezel and bier*

After walking around and picking up some last minute souvenirs it was time to head back to the car and then to Baumholder. It was about a 4.5 hour drive back and we didn't wanna get back super late.

Once we got back to the park and ride area we came across this gem.

you can tell from where the other car is that this guy totally isn't in a spot.
Not sure if he knows that?
His e-brake was up and I'm pretty sure it rolled here while he was gone. :)

All in all it was a great way to wrap up the trip. I really love Munich and can't wait to go back and explore some more! We had a great time and I am DEFINITELY going to Oktoberfest next year when Rob is back!
