Stopped at a small village along the Romantic Road and it turned into the most peaceful afternoon of our whole Germany trip. The kids loved just wandering the cobbled lanes with no real agenda.
Free chocolate samples in Cologne bought us a solid hour of blissfully happy, quiet children.
Chocolate Museum in Cologne was hands down the kids' favourite stop, free samples everywhere.
Those spires on Cologne Cathedral had our whole family craning their necks. Properly awe-inspiring even for the teenagers who claim nothing impresses them.
Munich hotel check-in took over ninety minutes with our tired kids waiting around in the lobby the whole time. Rough start to what ended up being a genuinely lovely family trip otherwise. Front desk seemed understaffed for the number of families arriving around the same time. Would suggest building in buffer time after the flight for exactly this kind of delay.
The Glockenspiel at Marienplatz had our kids utterly mesmerised, the perfect opener for the Munich stop.
