Weekend in Bremen

I took the train (5 1/2 hours!) up to Bremen to visit Charlotte on Friday. This was my 4th trip to Bremen but the first time I actually saw something of the city. Not as much as I would have liked because the weather was so bad (rainy and so windy you couldn't carry an umbrella), but something.

Of course we had to visit the "street musicians of Bremen" statue. And I had to grab the donkey by his front legs for luck:

We also took a short walk around the old town and around Charlotte's neighborhood. And we cooked some yummy meals like lentil soup and mashed pumpkin with roasted pumpkin seeds.
