A Grass area in Weimar by our hotel		Lots of ducks.
A scenic river in a Weimar park. All the trees and things in this park were planted to make it look natural - but it is all man made.		Here are some flowers outside the Summer House of Johann Goethe.
This is an artificial ruin in the park. I think this tree was planted there at the time it was made to make it look good.		A bit more of the ruin. In the 18th century they used to like to do things like this.
Here is a statue of the Bard of Stratford on Avon - William Shakespeare. Not often you see one outside of Stratford on Avon.		Two stone chairs representing East and West.
Inside the hotel room, no Hobbits in this hotel!		A statue of two giants of German liturature; Johann Schiller and Johann Goethe. Johan Schiller was famous for writing 'An die Freude' which was used by Beethoven in his Choral Symphony. Johann Goethe was interested in everything, he was a poet, dramatist, writer and scientist. His most famous work is a version of 'Faust'.
There are plenty of horse drawn carriages here.		A stall selling famouse Wiemer sausages and also the town hall.
Statue of Carl August, Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar Eisenach on his horse.		An interesting round tower.
A blue flower in the park. A cornflower?		Plenty of yellow flowers that I think are yellow balsam.
This is a square monument with word puzzles on it. You have to be a German to appriciate them.		A red post box in Weimar. I wonder where they got that from?
A little something I made, a green jelly. This jelly mixture came all the way from New Zealand and is great because it can be made in cold water.		This is the way to eat jelly.
If you take a close look at the registration plate surround you will see the intresting name of the BMW dealer - Purmann.		Johann Goethe was a great advocate of the ginkgo tree. There is a Ginkgo Museum for all things ginkgo; seeds, plants, tea, jam. I bought two pots of jam and also a tree growing kit which came with seed and earth. I look forward to seeing the tree grow and having Dylan climb high in the branches.
