04 March 08 - 00:15The Four Musicians of Bremen?

If you didn't know the story of the Four Musicians of Bremen before you went there, you would have no choice but to know it back to front when you left!!  After a 350kmh tail wind flight from Stansted we arrived to a VERY WET, WINDY and COLD Bremen.  But would that stop the crazy family of Brehauts from having a good time.  I THINK NOT!

Bremen in beautiful.  It's marketplace is like walking into a history book of the middle ages with its Town Hall, Cathedral and many other buildings.  It has a real feeling about it - something we have not felt since visiting Stonehenge.  Add to this, a wonderful walk through the Schnoor District which is a collection of narrow cobble stoned streets lined with quaint little toy stores and taverns and you just feel like you may come across the Pied Piper (or indeed an odd collection of animals ready to sing for you!)

Of course, we had to drink a Becks and have a quick visit of its factory as we were in its home town and we did manage to pick up a six pack of Pilseners for 1.30 Euros (about $2.60!)

What a great way to spend a weekend (and Kathy managed to have Mother's Day in another country!!)

Next stop - Scotland!
