Ludwigburg Palace.....and peeing

Now on to more things GERMAN.....Life in this country is entertaining to say the least.  Where else can you enjoy Ritter Sport Chocolate, super awesome pretzel bread, and my favorite, peeing ANYWHERE you feel like peeing?  James is going to have a very rude awakening when we return to the states and he can't just drop his drawers and  pee whenever he feels the urge!  To tell you the truth....having 4 boys, the pee anywhere option has come in handy more than once.  Why is this not socially acceptable in Utah?  WHY???

Okay, so onto other things....  LUDWIGBURG PALACE.....FYI, do not take an almost 3 year old on a guided tour....the cute German girl giving  the tour may give you dirty looks the entire tour....mostly because your 3 year old is CRAZY!

Speaking of delicious pretzels....

Ludwigsburg Palace....our first real touristy destination!

Going upstairs to start our tour!

Rick takes A LOT of pictures of James...if you haven't noticed...

Outside, watching the rain fall by the bucket load!

These two are GINORMOUS!

This pic is of the Fairytale Gardens.....Thomas' birthday wish is to return there for the fall festival....I think we can safely say that this WILL happen!
