In June, Germany finally started opening things up again, with very strict guidelines of course, but it was SOMETHING. We were also allowed to now meet with one other household/family in or out of our houses. This was huge. We haven't had friends over in ages so this was a big deal.
Since we were officially allowed to explore again, we decided to hike to Humbergturm in Kaiserslautern. They call it Rapunzel's Tower. It's literally a giant tower in the middle of the forest. It's about a 2 mile hike up the mountain to get there, but it's wasn't too strenuous. The kids did just fine. . . & having some family friends with us made it even more fun.
After hiking for 2 miles, you come into this glade opening & the tower just stands there all by itself overlooking Kaiserslautern City. It's beautiful. We were able to have a small picnic in front of the tower, then went up the stairs to see the view from the top. It was amazing.
It was a great hike, a fun picnic, & just an all around good time. It feels SO good to be able to travel & explore again.
