Today was not a big day for miles. We rode to Kassel to see the Brothers Grimm Museum which is now housed in a new building. Getting to the building turned out to be a bit of a challenge due to blocked streets and road construction. The museum was fabulous! It took about 2 hours to see it.
We then rode to the Herkules monument which was very impressive perched on its hilltop location. It's been there from before the time of the Bros. Grimm! While the man made waterfalls were not operating due to ongoing repairs they were impressive as well and the big screen video of them in the visitor center was terrific.
After our ride back to the hotel, we walked up to the town center for the little international festival they were having. A singing group Dark Vatter was singing German country western songs in the local dialect. We also met some Americans who were there visiting some friends. Following a pizza dinner at the Italian restaurant, we walked back home and retired.
