trier

Last weekend I went to Trier and it was great. I was able to see roman church, amphitheater, roman bridge, and city gate. The history of the town is splendid and it is one of the oldest towns in Germany. I think the Germans are very lucky to claim that town and share in its history. The city square was great, live music, and splendid beer. And of course, I squeezed in my people watching! The train ride was the most scenic ride I have taken in the past 6 weeks. I marveled at the Mossel river valley with all its wineries and hay fields. I wish I could spend more time there.
