the land of the yummy yummm.... black forest cake and the amazing cuckoo clocks!!!

The dark green coniferous trees that crown the German Alps are a sight to watch out for. The amazing Heidelberg Castle is a must visit. It has a thousand year old barrel which matures the most delicious wine. Try a free sample... ;)
The bakeries on the edge of the Black Forest make the most delicious Black Forest cake which look so tempting and mouth-watering glazed with snow-white cream and perfectly red cherries. A must try!!!
Its nothing like the extremely sweet,dry no cherry layer that we get here.The cake gets its name from the Black forest of Germany.
The cuckoo clocks that are made from the wood of the pine trees from the Forest are the cutest clocks in the world with the cuckoo peeping out of the small cute door every hour.
The Rhine Falls on the border of Switzerland and Germany are beautiful. I recommend for anyone who likes the sound of flow of water juxtaposed with the serene, pristine beauty of the Alps.

Thats it for today... so till the next time we visit another sight for the eyes in Europe...Wiedersehen!!!
