Nuremberg - Highlights

These are some of the highlights from today. 

Started off with the uphill walk to the castle. 

I was lucky to be there early before the organized tour groups. The fog blanketed the city below. 

A modern statue that honors Albrecht Durer's painting "The Hare".  More close-ups in a later post.  Durer is a local artist and his home-now-museum is in this area. The three treasure hunters were working off of a list and high fived each other when they spotted this statue. 

Daily dose of church interiors (one of several stops).  

A little seasonal gluhwein on a chilly day. 

Sausages. I'm not hungry now but these are on my list. 

Booths full of seasonal fun. 

Local street musicians 

Very tasty.

Center statues are "Peter's Denial".  The three women on the left represent the three times of the denial. "The Rooster", to the left of the women, looks towards dawn.
