The Walled City Continued











After about as 40 minute walk up on the wall walkway we needed to come into the city to look for something for me to eat. I had a granola bar and a small drink along but consuming that wasn't sufficient to accommodate my need for calories at that time of the day.
First we saw this Chimney Sweep and he was quite willing to let us take his picture. Then we found the Bakery that I am looking at on the left side of the picture. Since the parking time was nearly up Helmut went to put some more money in for that. I had a piece of rhubarb cake similar to the rhubarb platz that is made in the Mennonite communities around MB. Helmut returned and had part of my cake as it was a very sizable piece.
Afterwards we walked around in the town for a while, visited a gift shop, saw this old old sheep barn (looks like a big gate) and then saw many other old buildings and the inside of the wall where it goes through a valley.
We were told that there was supposed to be a garden on the other side of the city some place. We drove around the outside of the wall but were not able to find a flower garden. We did see an area that looked like a veggie garden just getting started.
