Black Forest
You are now in the Black Forest
(Schwarzwald)...... be careful as there are
werewolves, scorcers, witches and devils
believed to inhabit the area. Good thing is
there are dwarfs to balance the scales!
Now this is what I call a cake!! I tried a
small piece of Black Forest Cake in Baden
Baden and it was very light as the filling
and frosting are both whipped cream.
This VW is topped with the
famous Bollenhut (pompom
hat) which also adorns women
on traditional holidays.
Sausages and more sausages...
you are in Germany!!
This house was brought down
from the upper forest. It was
owned by the same family
since the 1600's.
The girls had bedrooms and the
boys slept in the loft above the
cows. They fed the cows by
dropping hay down from the loft
and the heat from the cows rose up
to keep them warm at night.
