Brom goes to church

Coocoo

We are nearly home again, but today we had to drive a looooong way. All the way from the South of Germany to nearly the top! At least it felt like that.

But along the way we had a stop and visited a church. Mara had been there years ago and knew it was a pretty church, and bear, was she right!

The church was just sort of ordinary on the outside, but on the inside it was beautiful. A lot of paintings on the walls and ceilings, a lot of really pretty statues (apart from the saint without a head, I didn't like that one very much) and a lot of gold. 

The service had just ended when we got there, so we were able to get in and have a good look around. After about half an hour inside and then another three quarters of an hour outside, we continued on our way north.

Because it is a Sunday today, there were hardly any lorries on the road, which meant that the drive north was quite nice and easy and we arrived at our hotel in time for a nice dinner. 

Yum!
This will be our last night in a hotel and tomorrow we have one more thing to see before heading home.

    1. The church was the Fourteen Holy Helpers Church (Vierzehnheiligen) in Bad Staffelstein. I told Mara to put it in, but she forgot.

    1. There are. Quite often quite unassuming on the outside, but when you step inside...
