Fulda, Germany

Today we drove about 3 hours to Fulda. One of my good friends, Paula Vielhaber, is from this town and she recommended a hotel, a café, and gave us tips for shopping and sightseeing. How easy can it be? I met Paula in Shanghai when we were living there. She is still in Shanghai so she gave a virtual tour of her hometown. 
Fulda has beautiful architecture. We visited a quilt shop (go figure!) and to a beautiful jewelry store; both of the owners are friends of Paula’s.

Lunch at Cafe Ideal

Tomato soup with olive bread

I love this sign. It is a 3D shopping bag!

Dessert tonight.....called Vanilleparfait (vanilla parfait) mit Pflaumen Kompott (plum compote).  Mmmmm, I think I found a new way to use up the plums from our tree.
