Berg Hohenecken

We have quickly found that there is LOTS to do every weekend and the hardest part is deciding between it all! The weekend before Ian's birthday it was a beautiful Saturday and we decided to take full advantage of it by visiting the Kaiserslautern-Hohenecken Castle for a small medieval festival that was going on. We had to park at the bottom of the hill and walk up. Here's a picture of Ian trying to push Ellie up the first hill.


We passed this church on the way up and it had really neat doors.



We finally made it all the way up and the views were amazing and the castle ruins were really pretty neat. Plus, they had some cute rides for the kids.






Here are some pictures of us with the castle ruins.









Here's a couple of pictures of the views!









Here's the banner they had up for the day. We kind of think this is a banner they use for several things/years because there wasn't as much going on as it would lead you to believe!


Despite it's small size, we really did enjoy it.
From there we went to a car show that was happening in downtown Kaiserslautern.






Ian and I posed with a couple of the cars we really liked. When I lived here before, Porsches were my favorite although this is THE one, it's a pretty good alternative!
