It's Sunday morning, church services are underway - and all shops (except restaurants and beer gardens) are closed here in Germany.
Therefore let us take a walk free of tourists and shoppers and simply enjoy the easy walking nature of this little town.
We are docked opposite a beer garden situated in a park. By lunchtime expect this to be very busy.
Before heading into the town we pass the inevitable cathedral. Couldn't go in because of the service that was underway so no interior shots to bore you with today
but in the entrance a statue of the much revered Charlemagne...
The main street leading down to the Rathaus (Town Hall)
Memories of dancing the maypole in primary school came flooding back to me when I saw this maypole. At Underbool Primary ours was no where near as elaborate!
The ice-cream shops were ALL open, so this is my first taste for this summer in Europe.
I was quite attracted to this window display for "Six In The City"merchandise...
Time for lunch back on board the ship before we head on a short bus excursion to the city of Heidelberg this afternoon...
