Dresden Sept 11, 2010

This was my second trip to Dresden on a beautiful fall day.  We came out into a platz with a huge fall market going on and had a good time shopping around before viewing the rest of the city.

 Brats & Bier

Deutschland Staples

 Apfel Krappfla

My new favorite dessert:

Fried apple slices and topped with

cinnamon sugar and vanilla eis!

 Polish Pottery Stand

 Apfel Saft (Juice) Press

 I like this as much as I do cider!

These pedestrian crossing street lights are left over

from the days of former East Germany

 Part of the original wall of the Frauenkirche

 Dresdener Frauenkirche:

It was basically leveled
during the firebombing of Dresden.

The black stones are original and they can be seen throughout the building.
