Today Josh and I toured the New Residenz that began being built in 1613. Bamberg was never bombed in World War II, so most everything that we have seen has never been reconstructed like most of Germany.
We were able to take pictures on this tour, but with no flash.
In the grand ballroom, you can actally reserve for events. I'm not sure if I would want to have an event there except in the summer, it is freezing in all of the castles. Well it's freezing cold outside too!
I love the flowering detail.

Outside the New Residenz. They are doing restoration work on some of the outside right now.
New Residenz Rose Garden. It has beautiful views of the city and St Michaelsberg, where we were a couple of days ago.
When all the roses are blooming, I'm sure this is beautiful.
St Michaelsberg.
After our tour, it was coffee and cake time. Josh's favorite time of day or I guess any time of day that involves food.
When we got back we went to dinner with Tasha and Chloe and had Italian.
Josh forgot to take a picture of his dinner. But here is his beer and dessert. I guess the two most important parts. The chocolate soufflé was yummy.
Chloe with Uncle Josh again. I can't get over what a good girl Chloe is. She sleeps through the night and we hardly hear a peep out of her, except her cute squeal.
Sydney is still having a great time. I don't think she misses us, because she gets lots of treats and attention at Gran & Gramps' house.
Tomorrow we are having lunch at a castle and then getting ready to travel down to the southern part of Germany.
Sounds like Josh might be coming home with a beer belly! I think cake time would be my favorite time of day, too.
