Day Trips

I believe this is what is referred to as a link dump.  Haven't done any noteworthy trips recently, but here are a few day trips that have been pretty awesome...

Idstein Hexenmarkt - Picture Renaissance Fair meets quaint, old German village.  Lots of traditional foods, handcrafts, and games.  Fun for little ones.

Nerobergbahn Wiesbaden - Fairly short funicular railroad right to the highest point in Wiesbaden.  Scenic park at the top with WWI memorial.  Short walk to the Russian Orthodox cathedral.

Nerotal Park - A favorite spot for a picnic lunch.

Zoo Neunkirchen - Reasonably priced zoo that won't make you want to cry.  Enclosures are large and natural.  Except for the giraffes.  Cool falcon show.

Rhein-Mosel Dreieck - We actually did this back in February when my mom was here.  I recommend going in the spring when it's not -20F and sleeting.

3 weeks until Gran Canaría....
