A Day on the Farm??

Today, we went to a "village" of farmhouses. It reminded me a lot of Westville in southwest Georgia, but much older (most of them originated in the 16th or 17th century). These farmhouses were taken apart at their original location in the hills of the Black Forest, and they were put back together in a small village as a tourist attraction. There were about 20 buildings, including farmhouses, grain mills, blacksmith shops, out-houses, barns, etc. We had a little bit of rain in the morning, but it turned into a nice afternoon. Next, we went to a glass factory and watched a man as he made vases. It was pretty cool, and Chris made a vase to bring home. We ended our day a little early because we plan to get up early tomorrow and spend the day at Europa Park, Germany's equivalent to Six Flags. We are so excited!
